## Summary

The Met Office, a central government public authority located in Exeter, UK, has completed the procurement process for the renewal of its ElasticSearch contract. This process, referenced by tender ID MO1424, falls under the goods category and was conducted using a direct procurement method without competition, given it was below threshold, and specifically aimed at ensuring continuity of its integrated search solution. ElasticSearch Limited, based in London, has been selected as the supplier. The award was communicated on 5 December 2025, with the contract beginning on 17 December 2025 and concluding on 28 November 2026. As of this date, the contract is pending with a transparency notice published on the same day.

This renewal represents a strategic opportunity for businesses involved in internet and intranet software package sales, particularly SMEs, given its emphasis on maintaining operational continuity and minimising disruption to the Met Office systems. Companies that specialise in support and integration services for government technology infrastructure, and whose solutions are compatible with ElasticSearch, would be favourably positioned to engage with similar procurement processes in the future. The procurement method and direct award reflect the potential for partnership opportunities for businesses able to deliver specialised and seamlessly integrated solutions.

## Notice

Renewal of ElasticSearch contract for 1 year. This search solution is embedded into the Met Office systems and any changes to this aspect would prove costly and disruptive beyond the value of the contract.
