## Summary

The Serious Fraud Office commissioned specialist artificial intelligence delivery, implementation and technical support services to design, develop, test and deploy technology solutions and pilot initiatives. This is software integration and consultancy work, delivered for the SFO in London. The requirement is a call-off from the G Cloud 14 framework, rather than a standalone procurement. It concerns applied AI delivery and technical implementation, not simply the supply of software. The work supports the SFO’s use of technology through pilot initiatives and solutions developed and deployed for the organisation.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Allthorpe Consulting Ltd. The award was made on 30 September 2026, following a selective call-off from the G Cloud 14 framework. The stated tender value and awarded contract value are both £506,610. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The competition deadline was 30 September 2026. The procurement was for one requirement, with no separate lots described. The published information does not set out scoring or evaluation criteria, so the basis for selecting the supplier cannot be described beyond the framework call-off route. The requirement was marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

For suppliers that missed this award, it provides a clear example of the Serious Fraud Office buying specialist AI delivery as a defined, time-limited engagement through the G Cloud framework. A credible competitor would need to combine practical AI capability with the ability to design, build, test and deploy technology solutions, and provide technical support through implementation. The buyer sought delivery across the full path from development to deployment, including pilot initiatives; suppliers focused only on advisory work or software products would be less closely aligned. The SFO identified this requirement as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller specialist firms could compete through the framework route. Evidence of delivering integrated technology solutions and managing pilots through to operational deployment would be relevant when this specific requirement returns to market.
