## Summary

The Home Office is seeking to award a contract titled "Investigator Software & Services Agreement," aimed at providing technology solutions for the UK Border Force project known as 'Hunter'. This procurement falls under the category of Information Technology Services with an emphasis on services and is located in Folkestone, UK. The procurement method used for this contract was a single tender action due to it being below threshold. The contract period commenced on 1 January 2020 and is set to conclude on 31 December 2022, which means that the successful supplier will have ongoing responsibilities for approximately three years.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in information technology services, system support, and software development. Given that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, this is an excellent chance for innovative ICT firms to engage with a government entity and expand their portfolio. Companies capable of providing bespoke solutions and support in technology for government projects may find this procurement well-suited to their competencies, allowing them to gain valuable experience in public sector contracts.
