## Summary

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is conducting a tender for the 'Kong CE-EE Migration Team' as part of its Integrations Programme Development Unit. This initiative is aimed at transforming the Integration Application landscape by migrating approximately 312 API routes from the existing Kong CE platform to the new Kong EE platform, with the contract valued at £682,000.

The contract is set to commence from 27th June 2022 and will run until 31st March 2023, covering various locations including the UK and British Overseas Territories.
