## Summary

The Bank of England has completed the procurement process for the provision of software licences, specifically JFrog Artifactory Licence subscriptions. This procurement, classified under the software package and information systems category, was conducted through a selective procurement method by means of a call-off from an existing framework agreement. Located in England, the contract was awarded to Softcat PLC for a value of £143,382.60. The award stage of the procurement was concluded on 6th May 2025, marking the active status of the contract, which spans from 31st March 2025 to 30th March 2026. The tendering process was under the 'award' stage, with the initial tender period ending on 24th March 2025.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in software solutions to engage with prestigious financial institutions like the Bank of England. Although large enterprises like Softcat PLC were the suitable candidates in this instance, the engagement opens potential subcontracting or partnership possibilities for those wishing to tap into the specialised software market. Companies adept in software package provision and maintenance, despite the size constraints, can leverage network opportunities from such high-profile contracts to propel strategic growth within this sector.
