## Summary

The Department for Work and Pensions has awarded a contract for the provision of security architecture services for cloud-based products, titled "Security Architect - for Cloud based Products". This tender is classified under IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support (CPV code 72000000). The procurement process commenced with a selective tendering method and concluded with the contract award on 22 March 2021. The contract period spans from 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022, and it has a total value of £99,620. The services will be delivered across various locations including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and Europe.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the IT service industry, particularly those specialising in cloud security and software development. Businesses that possess expertise in creating micro-services and adopting new technologies would be especially well-suited to compete for similar contracts in the future. By engaging in this procurement process, companies can leverage their capabilities to assist in modernising the Department's ADaaS service, potentially leading to further contracts and growth within the public sector.

## Notice

It has become necessary to modernise the ADaaS service and build a new service in AWS. As part of this we need to build our own micro-services, adopt new technologies and gain the appropriate skills/expertise to support and enable us to do this, by procuring the services to provide this expertise.
