## Summary

The Crown Hosting Framework Authority has awarded a contract for the provision of technical and security assurance services to I3SECURE LIMITED. The contract, valued at £378,007, was awarded on 21 December 2023 with a contract period from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2025. The services fall under the "World wide web (www) site operation host services" category, and the deliveries will span across various regions in the United Kingdom including North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, South West, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Isle of Man, Guernsey, and Jersey. The procurement process was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, concluding its tender period on 5 December 2023.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in technical and security assurance to expand their footprint within the public sector, showcasing their capabilities on a reputable platform managed by Crown Commercial Service. SMEs are particularly encouraged to take part, as the procurement highlights suitability for such enterprises, although it is not exclusive to VCSEs. Firms specializing in web hosting services, security protocols, and technical governance will find this contract especially relevant. By securing a contract with a high-profile government authority, businesses can not only enhance their portfolio but also gain valuable experience in managing large-scale governance functions.
