## Summary

The Ministry of Defence, based in London, has completed the award stage for the "EUS(S) and Secret Managed Service" procurement, classified under Computer-related professional services. The procurement was conducted through a selective method via a call-off from a framework agreement. This project aimed to transition Secret IT Services to a new contract, with a focus on a technical change process. The contract, valued at £584,900, commenced on 23 February 2026 and is set to conclude on 30 June 2026. The tender process officially ended on 1 February 2026, with the award notice published on 11 March 2026.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in IT and professional services, particularly those capable of handling complex, secure service transitions. While the procurement primarily engaged a large supplier, Apache IX Limited, businesses with capacity to meet similar demands could find parallel opportunities rewarding. The process underscores potential within targeted procurement frameworks, encouraging entities capable of integrating technical processes within Defence environments to explore forthcoming opportunities within government contracts.

## Notice

The EUS(S) project has transitioned the Secret IT Services previously delivered under the DII contract to a new contract on 1 July 2025, enabling ATLAS exit to complete. The transition to the new contract included the development and implementation of a new technical change process to manage, coordinate, prioritise and deliver technical change within EUS (S).
