## Summary

The National Archives procured Workday licences as a goods supply requirement for its operations. The purchase covers Workday licensing rather than implementation, consultancy or general software development. The associated classification describes license management software. Delivery is linked to the National Archives site in Richmond, England. The buying organisation is The National Archives, based on Ruskin Avenue in Richmond. This opportunity is therefore most relevant to software publishers, authorised licensing partners, resellers and suppliers able to provide Workday licences to a UK public body. Businesses focused solely on unrelated IT services, software engineering, infrastructure or facilities work would not be aligned with the stated requirement.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The National Archives used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 31 July 2026 at 5pm, and the contract was awarded on 31 July 2026. Workday Limited was selected as supplier for an awarded value of £1,216,714. The contract period runs from 8 August 2026 to 7 August 2028. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement is recorded as a single Workday licences requirement, with the awarded supplier and value applying to the contract as a whole.

This award demonstrates a substantial, defined requirement for Workday licences within The National Archives and shows that the buyer uses a framework call-off route for this type of purchase. Suppliers considering future work with this buyer would need direct capability to supply Workday licensing, or a credible authorised reseller or licensing-partner position. They would also need to understand public-sector framework call-offs and manage the commercial, ordering and support obligations associated with a sizeable software licence provision. The requirement is suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist licensing business could be relevant if it can demonstrate the necessary Workday relationship, reliable supply capacity and experience serving public-sector customers.
