## Summary

Northern Ireland Water Limited procured a managed service provider to manage licensing implementation, support and maintenance for its MWM/CAR product suite, a cloud-based application. This is an IT services requirement covering the ongoing management and technical support of the software suite. The work is for Northern Ireland Water and is delivered in the United Kingdom. The contract is a single package rather than a set of separately described lots.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AMT-SYBEX Limited on 1 September 2026. Northern Ireland Water used a direct award route to record the outcome of a procurement conducted under the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016; the notice explains that the competition included a pre-qualification stage published on 13 January 2025 and an invitation-to-negotiate stage published on 10 November 2025. The contract was signed on 17 October 2026 and runs from 17 October 2026 to 8 October 2029, with three one-year extensions available, to a maximum end date of 8 October 2032. Its value is £12,597,000 excluding VAT (£15,116,400 including VAT). It covers one lot; the available award data does not state evaluation criteria.

For suppliers seeking to compete for similar Northern Ireland Water work, this award demonstrates demand for a managed service provider able to take responsibility for licensing implementation, ongoing support and maintenance of a cloud-based MWM/CAR software suite. A credible competitor would need to show that it can manage the product licensing and deliver dependable application support and maintenance over a multi-year service period, with capacity to continue through possible extensions and to undertake additional services when required. The procurement used a competitive pre-qualification and invitation-to-negotiate process before the award was recorded, so relevant experience and the ability to participate in a staged competition are commercially pertinent. The awarded supplier was AMT-SYBEX Limited.
