## Summary

HM Treasury has completed the procurement process for a 12-month licence for IBM Planning Analytics Advanced Processor Value Unit (PVU) Annual Software Subscription & Support. The procurement falls under the "Software package and information systems" industry category and was executed through a direct award to IBM United Kingdom Limited, the only supplier due to the intellectual property rights held by IBM. The contract for this procurement, valued at £468,563.20 excluding VAT (£562,275.84 including VAT), was signed on 10 April 2025 with the contract period starting on 11 April 2025 and ending on 31 March 2026. The procurement was conducted at HM Treasury's offices in London, UK, under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in software licensing, particularly those specialising in financial analytics tools. Companies of varying sizes, especially those with specialisation in high-end financial software solutions, have substantial growth potential through contracts like this. Although this tender was awarded directly to IBM due to their proprietary hold over the software, future opportunities may arise for partnering or subcontracting with larger organisations like IBM or offering complementary services to enhance such software capabilities.

### Procurement Information

IBM as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the software holds the intellectual property right.

Alternative route to procure the licences, such as via resellers, have been assessed but rejected as it deliver poorer value for money outcomes compared to contracting directly with IBM.
