## Summary

The procurement process involved the Department for Transport (DfTc) as the buying organisation, issuing a tender for "Microsoft Premium Support" within the IT services industry category. The procurement method employed was a direct single tender action, completing its tender period on 24th September 2021. The awarded contract, amounting to £96,442, has a contract duration from 25th September 2021 to 24th September 2022, and is applicable to multiple delivery addresses, including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the IT services sector, particularly those offering consulting, software development, and support services.

This creates a landscape for innovation and tailored service offerings aimed at enhancing governmental IT frameworks.
