## Summary

ASTER GROUP LIMITED procured specialist data consultancy to deliver its Data Maturity programme and approved Data Security project. The work covers cloud data architecture, the Azure platform, data governance and data security governance, risk and compliance (GRC), with project management support. Delivery is across Microsoft Fabric, Microsoft Purview and Power BI. The stated delivery areas are the East of England, London, South East and South West of England.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Transparity Solutions Limited. It was run as a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The submission deadline was 12 October 2026, and the award was made on 13 October 2026. The awarded value is £500,700. The contract runs from 13 October 2026 to 12 October 2028, with an option to extend once for a further 12 months. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award shows demand from ASTER GROUP LIMITED for a supplier able to combine cloud data architecture and Azure platform delivery with data governance, data security GRC and project management. Relevant technical capability needs to cover Microsoft Fabric, Microsoft Purview and Power BI, and support both a data maturity programme and a defined security project. The procurement was suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, and was delivered through a framework call-off, so a credible competitor for this buyer’s requirement would need relevant specialist expertise and a route to supply through an applicable framework.
