## Summary

The Ministry of Justice procured digital delivery services for probation services. The work covers the design, build, launch, adoption and ongoing iteration of digital services across multiple service areas. This is a technology and digital consultancy requirement, including software development, internet and support services (CPV 72000000). Delivery covers the United Kingdom. The buyer is central government, and the requirement was arranged as a single service lot. It is relevant to organisations that can provide end-to-end digital delivery, from service design and technical development through to live service launch, user adoption and subsequent improvement. The work concerns probation-related digital services rather than general Ministry of Justice technology provision.

The procurement has reached award stage, with the tender recorded as complete. It used a competitive selective procedure, with the contract awarded under a framework. Hippo Digital Limted was selected for the single lot. The award date is 11 August 2026 and the awarded value is £36,000,000 excluding VAT, or £43,200,000 including VAT. The contract period is 24 August 2026 to 23 August 2029, with an option to extend for 12 months to 24 August 2030. The standstill period ends on 20 August 2026, and contract signature is scheduled for 21 August 2026. The award is recorded as pending, so the published outcome precedes final contract signature.

This procurement demonstrates substantial Ministry of Justice demand for integrated digital delivery in probation. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need to combine service design, software development, delivery management, launch planning, user adoption and iterative improvement across several service areas. Credible competitors should be able to take digital services from early design through build and live operation, while working within central-government delivery expectations and a probation-service context. Experience coordinating multidisciplinary teams and supporting services after launch would be particularly relevant, as the requirement extends beyond creating software to embedding and improving services in use. Familiarity with framework-based public procurement would also help organisations compete through the route used for this award.
