## Summary

The Department for Work & Pensions intends to procure licences for a digital support product aimed at separating and separated parents. The product will help parents manage conflict as part of the Reducing Parental Conflict programme. This is a software and information-systems requirement, rather than a development, consultancy or general family-support services contract. The procurement is organised by the Department for Work & Pensions, a central government authority. The published scope identifies one requirement covering the digital support product. Suppliers offering an established digital platform, or a product that can provide the required support through licensed access, are likely to be relevant. The requirement is for goods in procurement terms, with the focus on access to and use of the digital product by the intended users.

This process is at the planning stage: the buyer has announced an intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The expected procedure is a competitive flexible procedure, with one planned lot. The buyer expects the next notice to be published on 24 September 2026. The indicative contract period is 14 December 2026 to 13 December 2027, with a possible extension or renewal taking the maximum period to 13 December 2028. The estimated value is £2,190,000 excluding VAT, or £2,628,000 including VAT. The procurement is above the relevant threshold. The buyer has identified the planned lot as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

The requirement is likely to suit suppliers that own, operate or license a digital product designed to support separating or separated parents with conflict management. Relevant businesses may include established software providers, digital platforms and social-impact technology organisations with a product that can be made available through licences. The buyer has indicated that small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises are suitable participants, so the requirement is not limited to large commercial technology companies. Suppliers should prepare to explain how their product supports the stated user group and manages conflict in a digital setting. Product ownership or licensing rights, reliable access for users and the capacity to provide the service across the planned contract period will be commercially relevant when the procurement reaches the market.
