## Summary

The Ministry of Justice is procuring IT service management and digital and technology delivery services. The scope is described at this level as IT Service Management Digital and Technology Delivery Services, covering information technology services. The requirement is for the Ministry of Justice, a central government department. The contracting information does not identify a delivery location, so the work cannot be geographically matched beyond the buyer being based in London. This is a single-lot services requirement, linked to a framework agreement. It concerns delivery of technology services rather than the supply of specified physical goods or construction work.

The procurement is complete and an award has been made to Virtusa Consulting and Services Ltd UK. The award is recorded as pending. The award date is 22 October 2026. The awarded value is £3.75 million excluding VAT (£4.5 million including VAT). The contract period is 10 November 2026 to 9 November 2028, with an optional six-month extension that could extend the period to 9 May 2029. The Ministry used a selective procedure to award work under a framework, through a competitive process. The contract was divided into one lot. The award is for information technology services; no further evaluation criteria are stated in the procurement details.

For suppliers who did not win, this award provides a clear example of the Ministry of Justice buying IT service management alongside digital and technology delivery services through a competitive call-off from a framework. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate the ability to deliver both service management and broader digital and technology services for a central government customer, and to perform at the scale of a multi-year services contract. The selected supplier is a large UK-based consultancy, indicating that an established provider with sufficient delivery capacity is well placed to compete. Firms with relevant technology service delivery experience and the ability to meet public-sector requirements may be better positioned when this buyer's requirement returns to market.
