## Summary

The National Audit Office (NAO) has completed a public procurement process for an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System focused on Payroll Services. This contract, classed under the Information Technology services category, was awarded without prior publication of a call for competition due to its procurement method being a direct call-off from the Crown Commercial Services G-Cloud 14 framework. The contract commenced on 30th November 2025 and will continue for four years and two months, ending on 29th January 2030. The total estimated contract value stands at £315,967.58, exclusive of VAT, and £379,161.10, inclusive of VAT. The services are to be delivered in the UK, with key participation from the company Softcat plc, which has been identified as the supplier for this opportunity.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in the IT services industry, particularly those specialising in payroll systems and solutions. Companies that are part of government frameworks, like the CCS G-Cloud, are well-positioned to compete for similar tenders, especially when direct award processes are utilised. Subcontracting opportunities are also anticipated, as the main contract includes subcontracted services to MHR International UK Limited. Organisations with robust capabilities in delivering comprehensive ERP solutions, especially those catering to public law entities, could significantly benefit by enhancing their service portfolio and reputation through successful project execution within government contracts.
