## Summary

The public procurement process led by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) pertains to a contract for Data Centre Services and Project Services in the region of UKG, United Kingdom. The procurement stage has been completed, with the contract awarded to Fujitsu Services Ltd. This bridging contract ensures continuity of essential computer-related services during the migration of applications to new infrastructure. The procurement method used for this contract was limited, citing technical reasons and the protection of exclusive intellectual property rights as outlined in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The award date was 19th June 2025, with a total contract value of £220,300,000.

This tender is significant for businesses operating in the IT and computer services industries, offering opportunities particularly for those specialising in data services, computer support, consultancy, and network services. However, due to the unique requirements and intellectual property involved, the procurement was awarded directly to an incumbent provider, Fujitsu Services Ltd, underlining the opportunity for large-scale IT firms capable of offering bespoke and highly technical data centre services. Despite the specific requirements of this contract, similar tenders could present growth prospects for businesses ready to compete in niche IT sectors with the necessary expertise and technological capabilities.

## Notice

The Authority has a requirement for a bridging contract to ensure continuity of essential services as we migrate to new arrangements.

Options: There is an option for a 1x 12 month extension.

### Procurement Information

HMRC is in the process of migrating and replacing certain existing applications from existing data centres. As an interim measure, the incumbent provider is required to keep essential services functioning on these applications whilst this migration takes place. The services procured via this contract concern those data centre services and applications pending such migration and or replacement and associated project services. Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("PCR") provides that a contracting authority may award a public contract without prior publication of a Contract Notice where the services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator where competition is absent for technical reasons. Regulation 32(2)(b)(iii) of the PCR provides likewise, in order to protect exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights. Both of these grounds apply to the award of this contract to Fujitsu Services Ltd (the "Contractor") for the reasons explained below. A change to a different contractor cannot be made for these services because the HMRC applications concerned are hosted and/or operated by the Contractor on the Contractor's infrastructure in the Contractor's data centres with connectivity provided by the Contractor. It would not be possible for another contractor to take over or provide these services using the original Contractor's infrastructure and hosting before they are migrated to HMRC's new replacement infrastructure. Also, some of the services required, before the move is complete, are built with and or use the Contractor's unique intellectual property rights and this could not be supplied by a third party.
