## Summary

The Crown Commercial Service has initiated a tender process for the G-Cloud 12 framework agreement. This procurement is aimed at UK public sector bodies, including central government departments, NHS bodies, and local authorities. The framework has a maximum initial duration of 24 months with potential extensions up to 12 months each. The tender deadline is set for July 20, 2020. The contract period is scheduled to start on September 28, 2020, and end on September 27, 2021. The procurement falls under the services category and has an estimated value of £2.5 billion.

The G-Cloud 12 tender presents business opportunities for organisations offering software packages and information systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete for this procurement. The open procedure above the threshold allows for fair competition among suppliers. The initiative is particularly relevant amidst the current COVID-19 pandemic, with the Crown Commercial Service extending existing framework agreements for up to three months to manage urgent requirements and support businesses in delivering services efficiently under challenging circumstances.

## Notice

Crown Commercial Service as the Contracting Authority is putting in place a Framework Agreement for use by UK public sector bodies identified at VI.3 (and any future successors to these organisations), which include Central Government Departments and their Arm's Length Bodies and Agencies, Non Departmental Public Bodies, NHS bodies, Local Authorities and Universities. The maximum initial duration of any Call-Off Contract that may be placed by an eligible Contracting Authorities is 24 months with two extensions allowed, each of up to 12 months. G-Cloud services, available via the Digital Marketplace, will require frequent procurement refreshes to bring on new suppliers and services. New iterations of this Framework are being considered at a frequency of 12 months depending on demand and/or availability of new services as the IT Cloud market develops. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, Crown Commercial Service (CCS) believes that the first condition set out in Regulation 72(1)(c) Public Contracts Regulations 2015 has been fulfilled in respect of the Framework Agreement. Crown Commercial Service has taken the decision to extend existing framework agreements that were due for re procurement for a period of up to three months (3 months) for G-Cloud 12. This is to enable CCS resources to be diverted to procuring urgent requirements to deal with COVID-19 consequences and to relieve pressure on the supply chain while short staffed, to enable businesses to continue to deliver services and goods to customers. CCS intends to deliver replacement framework agreements as quickly as possible after the initial COVID-19 impact.
