## Summary

The recent procurement process conducted by the Department of Health & Social Care (DHSC) involves the award of a maintenance cover contract for MapInfo software. This contract is categorized under the services industry and specifically addresses software maintenance and repair, with the procurement undertaken via a direct method below the competition threshold. The contract has been awarded to Mapchester Limited, located in Manchester, with a total value of £12,096 gross. The contract is active from 1st March 2026 until 28th February 2027, with the potential for yearly renewals. The procurement stage is complete, and the legal framework guiding the process is outlined by the UK legislation of 2023/54. Notably, the DHSC maintains its central government role with operations based in London.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in software maintenance, particularly those proficient in managing similar service contracts under central government requirements. Companies that operate within a similar niche, such as Mapchester Limited, an SME with the capability to provide software maintenance and repair services, are well-positioned to engage with such opportunities. The steady nature of this contract, with provisions for yearly renewal, suggests a stable potential income stream and a chance for SMEs to solidify their presence in public sector procurement, enhancing their portfolio and network within the UK government sector.

## Notice

Due to the finance policy which requires an atamis contract number to raise a PO above PS10k, this is simply a record to facilitate that process but keep on record that we have this service that we renew annually with Mapchester Ltd
