## Summary

The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, acting through the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), is in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Provision of Client-Side and Delivery Partner Services." This process aims to appoint partners for IT services, specifically consulting, software development, and internet support. The procurement, valued at approximately £145 million, falls under the services category and is scheduled for execution in the United Kingdom, with the contract period planned from 31st July 2026 to 30th July 2029. Suppliers interested in participating are encouraged to register by 10th October 2025, with a key briefing scheduled for 14th October 2025 where prospective suppliers can engage with UKHSA representatives.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, consulting, and support.
