## Summary

The procurement process for the "DoH Intranet Enhancement" project, initiated by the Crown Commercial Service, is complete. This project falls within the IT services industry category, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, and support. The tender was driven by the need for ongoing development resources following the successful launch of the Department of Health's new intranet. The contract period ran from 22nd August 2015 to 4th August 2017, having been awarded on 29th July 2015. The primary location for the delivery of this service was London, United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those adept in software development and consulting. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, especially those with a proven track record under the Digital Services Framework. The continual evolution and enhancement requirements of the intranet system indicate ongoing demand for expertise, making this an attractive venture for firms looking to expand their operations in the public sector. This represents a potential pathway for businesses to grow while supporting government digital initiatives.

## Notice

PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS FOR TRANSPARENCY PURPOSES ONLY, ONLY CAPABLE SUPPLIERS UNDER THE DIGITAL SERVICES FRAMEWORK WILL BE INVITED TO BID. Since going into Live Beta in September 2014, the DH Intranet has changed the way its staff engage with information, each other, and the world beyond Whitehall (and Leeds). The new Intranet has delivered an improved service that is 4 times faster, 5 times smaller and 90% cheaper than its predecessor 'Delphi'. This has been a joint project between the Digital and Internal Comms teams and won the DH Recognition Award for 'Working Differently and Better' in January 2015. We have a commitment to uphold the 26 points in the Service Standard and to continually iterate the service to meet evolving needs of users. The development contract has now come to an end and this proposition seeks approval to go back to market for continuous development resource.
