## Summary

HM Treasury procured a cost-benefit analysis of the telecommunications needs of infrastructure services. The work is a consultancy and research assignment, intended to assess telecoms requirements and their costs and benefits for infrastructure services. The main procurement category is services, classified under CPV 73000000 for research, development and related consultancy services. Delivery is associated with HM Treasury at 1 Horse Guards Road, London, England. The contracting authority is HM Treasury, the UK government department responsible for the procurement. This requirement is therefore relevant to consultancies, economic advisers and research organisations with experience analysing telecommunications infrastructure needs, service requirements and investment or delivery options for public sector clients in London or nationally.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 9 July 2026 at 5:00 pm. The contract period runs from 27 July 2026 to 19 October 2026. HM Treasury awarded the contract to ICF Consulting Services Ltd on 30 July 2026, for £182,200 including the published contract value. The opportunity was suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one requirement. The evaluation basis recorded for the process is selection through the dynamic purchasing system call-off route.

This award demonstrates a defined public-sector demand for specialist consultancy on telecommunications requirements supporting infrastructure services, with a short, focused delivery programme and a substantial single assignment. It is useful market intelligence for research and advisory firms tracking HM Treasury work, particularly SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises that can operate in these markets. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to show strong cost-benefit analysis, telecommunications expertise, infrastructure-sector understanding and the ability to turn technical requirements into clear economic advice. Experience delivering evidence-based consultancy for government or other complex public-sector clients would strengthen its position, as would the capacity to complete a focused analysis to a demanding timetable.
