## Summary

The Ministry of Defence is procuring access to HPO Technologies Limited’s digital Human Performance System platform, together with software licences, platform services, support and ongoing development. The agreement also covers developing, testing and evaluating digital human-performance capabilities to assess whether they are suitable for wider adoption across Defence. Access will be arranged through tasking order forms over the agreement term. This is a software and related services requirement, including implementation and support. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The platform is intended to help the Ministry assess human-performance capabilities in a defence context and determine their potential for broader use.

The procurement is complete and awarded to HPO Technologies Limited through a direct award. The stated reason was that the supplier owns the intellectual property, source code and proprietary technology needed to provide the software, platform services and development. The arrangement runs from 5 October 2026 to 9 October 2028. Its maximum liability is £5,000,000 including VAT; this is a ceiling, not a commitment to spend. The award lists a value of £4,166,666 excluding VAT. The single lot is complete. The award is recorded as pending, and contract signature was scheduled for 2 October 2026. No evaluation criteria are stated.

For suppliers considering comparable future requirements from the Ministry of Defence, this award demonstrates demand for a specialist digital human-performance platform, its associated software licences and support, and development work to test capabilities for possible defence-wide adoption. A credible competitor would need to offer a platform and services suited to defence use, with the technical capacity to support implementation and ongoing development, as well as the ability to develop, test and evaluate new digital capabilities. The direct award was justified by the selected supplier’s ownership of the relevant intellectual property, source code and proprietary technology. That ownership was central to this procurement route; competitors would need to address the Ministry’s requirement for the necessary technology and rights, not simply provide general software services.

## Notice

The Contract is established as a Limit of Liability (LoL) arrangement with a maximum value of PS5,000,000 (inclusive of VAT). The stated value represents the Authority's maximum financial liability under the Contract and does not constitute a commitment to spend.
