## Summary

UK Shared Business Services Limited procured a SecOps Service Manager Provider for UK Research and Innovation. The requirement covers security operations service management and related security software development services, including the management and delivery of cyber security service capabilities. The work is associated with the buyer’s operations in Swindon, England. The procurement is classified primarily under industry-specific software development services, with security software development as an additional classification. Although the structured category is recorded as goods, the requirement itself is for a specialist cyber security service provider. The opportunity is therefore relevant to organisations delivering security operations management, cyber security service integration and supporting security software services, particularly those able to work with a UK public sector research and innovation organisation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It was run as a selective mini-competition call-off from the Cyber Security Services 3 framework, RM3764.3, rather than as a standalone open competition. The award was made to Normcyber Limited on 1 July 2026. The 12-month contract runs from 10 August 2026 to 9 August 2027 and has an awarded value of £720,000 excluding VAT. The call-off also allows up to a further £277,000 excluding VAT for additional services during the contract period. The tender submission deadline was 26 May 2026 at 11:00 BST. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the selected supplier is Normcyber Limited.

For a supplier assessing future demand, this award shows that UK Shared Business Services Limited sources substantial, time-limited cyber security service management capability for UK Research and Innovation through a specialist government framework. A credible competitor would need access to the relevant framework route, demonstrable expertise in security operations and cyber security service management, and the capacity to provide a managed service at significant public sector scale. Experience supporting security software or wider cyber security delivery would be relevant, alongside the ability to coordinate operational services, maintain service performance and respond to additional requirements. The procurement’s SME suitability indicates that smaller specialist providers can be considered, provided they can evidence the required technical capability, delivery capacity and framework compliance.
