## Summary

DELT SHARED SERVICES LIMITED, based in Plymouth, has awarded a contract titled "Microsoft SQL Licensing" for IT services, specifically for the provision of Microsoft licences to NSC users. The procurement process followed a direct, below-threshold method without competition, and the contract award stage was completed on 29th July 2026. The contract encompasses multiple delivery locations across the United Kingdom regions, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK. It officially started on 1st October 2025 and is set to be active until 31st July 2027, with an option for renewal until 2028.

This procurement presents significant business growth prospects, particularly for companies in the IT services sector that can offer consulting, software development, Internet, and support services. As the contract was awarded through a direct procurement method to SOFTCAT PLC, which is a large-scale supplier, smaller enterprises could aim to position themselves for any potential subcontracting opportunities that might arise. Companies with a strong track record in software licensing and those that can offer innovative solutions at competitive prices would be well-suited to compete in future tenders under similar categories. The ongoing need for IT solutions within the public sector, especially in regions identified in the tender, provides ample scope for businesses to expand their market reach.
