## Summary

The procurement process for the "Provision of Fortify License Support" was conducted by the Bank of England, headquartered in London. The contract, classified under IT services—consulting, software development, Internet, and support (CPV code: 72000000), has been completed. The process was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement, with an award date of 10th September 2025. The contract spans from 28th September 2025 to 27th September 2026 and holds a value of £103,619.89. Although the tender was initially open for applications until 3rd September 2025, it is now in the award stage, with Softcat PLC emerging as the supplier.

This tender offers valuable business growth opportunities for enterprises specialising in IT services, particularly those experienced with software support and maintenance, although it is noted that the engagement may not primarily suit SMEs or VCSEs given the nature and scale of the procurement. Large businesses like Softcat PLC that have a robust infrastructure for providing technological support in alignment with the buyer's standards are well-positioned to compete, particularly those adept at leveraging framework agreements to secure significant service contracts in the public sector.
