The requirement covers the novation of the website to the department, together with associated services and ongoing support. This is a digital and website services contract, including IT software development services. The buyer is a central government department based in London, and the service relates to the department’s national public health work. The awarded supplier is based in Cranleigh, Surrey, indicating that delivery is expected to be managed by a UK-based digital services business. The procurement comprises one completed lot focused on the website and its associated support requirements. The procurement has been awarded and is complete. The Department of Health & Social Care used a direct award below the competition threshold, without competition. WELLSET REPRO LIMITED trading as FLIPSIDE, an SME, was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 20 January 2026 and runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 October 2027, with a possible one-year extension to 31 March 2028. Its value is £131,437.50 excluding VAT and £157,725 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The contract was amended on 30 June 2026 for additional services within its scope. The evaluation basis is therefore the buyer’s direct-award decision rather than a competed tender assessment. This award demonstrates demand from the Department of Health & Social Care for continued support of a public-facing website connected with gambling harms prevention. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide dependable website maintenance, technical support and software development, while managing the transition or novation of an established website into a government department. The successful supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist digital business rather than only by a large systems integrator. Relevant capability includes maintaining service continuity, handling associated website services and delivering additional work within an existing support scope. Businesses with demonstrable experience of public-sector website operations, digital platforms and responsive technical support would be best placed to compete when this requirement returns. ## Notice Contract novation of the Gamble Aware website, associated services and support to DHSC ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/082087-2026 | | Notice type | UK10 - Contract Change Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - without competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Jul 2026 - 31 Oct 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £131,437 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Department of Health and Social Care | | Locality | LONDON | | Postcode area | South West London | | Postcode | SW1H 0EU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | WELLSET REPRO LIMITED | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72212517 - IT software development services ## Release History - 28 Aug 2026 at 10:54 - ContractAmendment - UK10 - Contract Change Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/082087-2026 - 28 Aug 2026 at 10:46 - Award - UK7 - Contract Details Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/082081-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/082087-2026 28th August 2026 - Contract change notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/082081-2026 28th August 2026 - Contract details notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - http://www.dialdomains.co.uk - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-of-health-and-social-care - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
