## Summary

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has awarded a contract titled "DWHR Security support" under the industry category of IT services, consulting, software development, Internet and support. The procurement process was in the Award stage, and the contract was awarded on 8 November 2024. The project is part of the data warehouse remediation programme aimed at enhancing security features for DWP’s corporate memory. The contract delivery is expected between 3 January 2025 and 31 March 2025, with a total contract value of £52,920 GBP. The work will be implemented across various regions including British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and United Kingdom. The procurement method utilised was selective, drawing from a framework agreement.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT security and software development, particularly those capable of implementing robust data encryption and systems resilience solutions. Given the scale and security requirements of the project, firms with experience in large-scale IT infrastructure and government contracts would be well-suited to compete. While the awarded supplier is a large entity, the ongoing demand for security services offers prospects for various IT consultancies and support companies to engage in similar future tenders. Furthermore, the DWP's commitment to enhancing data security reflects a steady market for sustained business partnerships and growth in the IT sector.

## Notice

The data warehouse remediation programme (DWH-R) is a major initiative which will protect the DWP's corporate memory, given that the service contains and processes citizen data ingested from many internal and external systems. The programme introduces many additional security features which address an audit requirement to make the data warehouse more resilient, and that it delivers encryption of data at rest and in transit.
