## Summary

The Crown Commercial Service has recently completed the procurement process for the "Scale Component Delivery Partner" contract, valued at £1,462,500, to provide technology components for the Scale project. The procurement, classified under software programming and consultancy services, was executed through a variation to an existing contract. The contract period commenced on 30th October 2020 and concluded on 29th October 2021, with the tender originally closing on 24th October 2020. All delivery will occur within the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to engage in projects involving technology and software services.
