## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) procured IT services for its Data Transformation Programme. The work covers completing the technical migration of DHSC assets and associated datasets from UKHSA’s on-premise physical servers, followed by decommissioning those servers and related infrastructure. It is a technology migration, data transformation and IT support requirement, classified under CPV 72000000. Delivery is in London, at or associated with DHSC’s Victoria Street location, with activity also concerning UKHSA assets in the United Kingdom. The requirement is categorised as services and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It is relevant to suppliers that can plan and deliver complex public-sector infrastructure migrations, handle associated datasets securely and complete controlled decommissioning after migration.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 28 August 2026 to CADENCE INNOVA LTD. The award is active and covers the period from 1 September 2026 to 31 March 2028. The awarded value is £23,595,000. The tender’s upper estimated value was £15,730,000, so these are separate figures and should not be treated as interchangeable. The contract was a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 10 August 2026 at 12:00. The process concerned one overall requirement rather than separately described lots. DHSC awarded the contract for the migration and subsequent decommissioning scope, with the award recorded against the IT services requirement. No cancellation or termination is recorded.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates substantial DHSC demand for end-to-end technical migration and infrastructure decommissioning. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the capacity to migrate physical-server assets and associated datasets in a controlled public-sector environment, manage dependencies between infrastructure and data, and complete decommissioning without disrupting required services. Experience in IT consulting, software development, internet and support services would be relevant to the requirement’s stated classification. The successful route was a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable work would benefit from access to an appropriate framework and the ability to compete through its call-off arrangements. The requirement was suitable for SMEs, indicating that specialist smaller firms may be well placed where they can evidence sufficient delivery capacity and technical capability.
