## Summary

The National Highways organisation has completed a tender process for the Central Power Service project. The project involves the rapid development and support of Microsoft Power and Dynamics solutions. The procurement method used was selective, calling off from a framework agreement. The tender period ended on 13th October 2023, with the contract period set from 4th January 2024 to 3rd January 2025. The project falls under the services category and is related to platform interconnectivity software. The buying organisation, National Highways, is based in Leeds, England.

This tender for the Central Power Service project, led by National Highways, presents opportunities for businesses involved in platform interconnectivity software and related services. Businesses capable of providing end-to-end solution delivery, transition to live support, and solution maintenance are well-suited to compete. The project's focus on governance and technical oversight creates a niche for businesses offering consultative, delivery, and support services in the realm of Microsoft Power and Dynamics solutions. The framework agreement approach allows for targeted supplier engagement, offering potential for long-term partnerships.

## Notice

National Highways has identified a challenge whereby an increasing number of Power Platform solutions have been developed without formalised technical oversight, governance, or centralised ownership. As a result, a number of unsupported solutions have been developed across the estate via a combination of end users and engaged partners on a 'Business Case by Business Case' basis. In many cases, these solutions do not have formal support arrangements or adequate technical oversight to ensure consistency in delivery and to minimise Operational Risk resulting from a lack of centralised governance. In response, the centrally owned 'Central Power Service' has been developed to provide a rapid delivery vehicle for the development and support of Microsoft Power and Dynamics solutions through the following approved Service Offerings: * Consult - Provides support for requirements, design, estimates and any information required for a Business Case * Deliver - Provides end to end delivery capability for solution build and transition into live support * Support - Provides the capability to transition an existing solution into Support * Maintain - Provides the capability to enhance or retire an existing supported solution
