## Summary

Sellafield Ltd, based in Warrington, has completed a public procurement process for a 3-year licensing subscription specifically targeting information technology services. The contract, titled "Cisco Firepower Threat Defence Licences," involved upgrading existing hardware to enhance security features. The procurement, conducted through a selective method, was a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period spans from 2nd July 2026 to 1st July 2029. The awarded contract, valued at £160,035.68, was concluded with British Telecommunications Public Limited Company (trading as BT PLC), highlighting the procurement's industry alignment with IT services and its broad applicability across multiple regions including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and Europe.

This tender represents a valuable business growth opportunity for companies specialising in IT security solutions, particularly those capable of meeting framework agreement requirements. However, given that the procurement suitability assessment indicates it is not targeted at small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), it would best fit larger, established businesses with the capacity and resources to fulfil a multi-year contract. The nature of the contract offers a stable income stream over three years, making it a crucial win for qualifying tech firms seeking to broaden their portfolio in IT security services.

## Notice
