## Summary

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), located in Southampton, England, has successfully awarded a contract for an "IT Service Management Platform (ITSM) Delivery Partner" to Illuminet Solutions Limited. This procurement, concluded through a call-off from the G-Cloud 14 framework agreement, involves the replacement of the existing IT Service Management solution with a modern platform that would align with MCA's strategic goals. The tender was classified under the industry category of IT services, consulting, software development, internet, and support, and was conducted using a selective procurement method. The contract period spans from 28th July 2025 to 30th April 2026, providing comprehensive delivery from discovery to implementation for the MCA. The contract is valued at £147,500 and targets various regions, including the British Oversea Territories, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, the United Kingdom, and beyond.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in IT services, particularly those experienced in ITSM implementations, to contribute to a critical transformative project with MCA. Companies capable of delivering an outcome-focused approach and competitive solutions in IT management will find this contract aligns with their skill sets and capabilities. Since the tender is suitable for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), it promises to be an avenue for these businesses to expand their service offerings and grow through involvement in a government-backed technology upgrade. Illuminet Solutions Limited’s engagement underscores the opportunity for SMEs to secure substantial contracts through strategic government partnerships.

## Notice

The MCA requires an outcome-based service from a supplier with the expertise and capacity to support the end-to-end replacement of its current IT Service Management (ITSM) solution. This includes gathering and analysing business requirements, defining and validating the expected benefits, preparing for and supporting a competitive tender process to procure the new ITSM tool, and subsequently delivering an outcome-focused implementation of the chosen solution. The aim is to ensure a seamless and effective transition to a modern ITSM platform that aligns with the agency's strategic direction and operational needs. This contract was awarded following a G-Cloud 14 buying process.
