## Summary

The Mining Remediation Authority procured Microsoft Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) Year 2 licences. The licences provide continued access to critical security updates for eligible Windows 10 devices, supporting business continuity, cyber security and planned technology refresh activities. This is an IT software-support requirement, rather than a general technology refresh or a wider managed IT service. The procurement comprised one lot, with delivery recorded for the United Kingdom. The buyer is a central government authority based in Nottinghamshire. The requirement is relevant to software licensing resellers and suppliers able to provide Microsoft ESU licences for eligible devices; organisations without access to the relevant licensing supply channel are less likely to match the requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to PHOENIX SOFTWARE LIMITED. The buyer used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 21 September 2026 and runs from 15 October 2026 to 14 October 2027. Its stated value is £62,029.50 excluding VAT, or £74,435.40 including VAT. The process had one lot, awarded as a single contract. The published details identify the purchase as Windows 10 ESU Year 2 licences; they do not set out a separate scoring or evaluation breakdown. The award covers IT services, classified under CPV 72000000, the code for IT services including consulting, software development, internet and support.

This award demonstrates demand from the Mining Remediation Authority for continued security support on eligible Windows 10 devices while it manages business continuity, cyber security and planned technology refresh. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to supply the correct Microsoft ESU Year 2 licences and understand eligibility across the buyer’s devices, alongside dependable licence fulfilment and a clear route to resolving licensing issues. The award went to a large software supplier, indicating that the requirement was met by a business able to compete in a limited competition and deliver the licensing requirement as a single package. The commercial fit is strongest for Microsoft licensing resellers or software suppliers with established access to these updates and the capacity to support a public-sector customer. The requirement is focused on ESU licensing, not broader IT transformation.
