## Summary

DSIT procured AI delivery management services to build software development and agile working capability across teams in its AI delivery environment. The purpose is to improve operational performance by strengthening delivery practices and supporting teams working on AI-related activity. The requirement is classified as project management consultancy services and falls within the services category. Delivery may take place across the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and elsewhere internationally. This is therefore relevant to consultancies and delivery partners able to work across a distributed or international environment, with practical expertise in agile delivery, software development capability building and operational improvement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 3 August 2026 to EQUAL EXPERTS UK LIMITED. The award value is £450,000. The contract period runs from 17 July 2026 to 18 January 2027. It was run as a selective procedure and was a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than a standalone open competition. The tender submission deadline was 6 July 2026. The contract is for services and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active. The requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off process, with the successful supplier selected for the AI delivery management service described above.

This award demonstrates demand from DSIT for specialist support that combines delivery management, software development capability building and agile ways of working in an AI-focused public sector environment. A credible competing supplier would need to show that it can help multiple teams adopt effective software delivery practices, improve operational working and provide practical management support rather than only strategic advice. Experience of agile delivery, software development environments and capability development would be central to competing for comparable work. Suppliers should also be able to operate across the United Kingdom and potentially wider international locations, and be comfortable delivering through a framework call-off route. The opportunity is suited to an SME consultancy with sufficient experienced delivery capacity.
