## Summary

The Department for Science, Innovation & Technology commissioned a delivery partner to provide a managed service and statements of work for GDS Local and the Service Standard. This is a digital and public-service delivery consultancy requirement: the partner supports work relating to local digital services and the standards used to assess government services. The procurement is classified under business services, a broad category that includes consulting. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The requirement was arranged as a single lot, so the work was procured as one package rather than divided into separately described lots.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Department used a selective procedure to make a competitive award under a framework. TPXImpact Ltd was selected on 16 September 2026. The award value was £2.5 million excluding VAT (£3 million including VAT); the signed contract is valued at £3,333,333.33 excluding VAT (£4 million including VAT). The contract was signed on 5 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 October 2028, with an optional one-year extension to 4 October 2029. The contract is based on statements of work, with the extension available if services are still required. The procurement data records one completed lot; no evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements are set out.

This award shows that the Department buys managed delivery-partner support for GDS Local and Service Standard work through a framework, using statements of work to define assignments. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate the ability to mobilise a delivery team across multiple work packages and provide consultancy and delivery support for government digital services and service-standard work. The selected supplier was a large company, indicating that the buyer has awarded this sizeable, multi-year service requirement to a provider with substantial organisational capacity. Firms with relevant public-sector delivery experience and the operational depth to manage continuing, statement-of-work-based services would be well placed to compete when this buyer next needs similar support.
