Description

This requirement is to procure a call-off contract for 4 years with a Contract Value up to £50m

through which DS Technology Programmes support services can be procured to enable the
delivery of Digital Services (DS) capex plan as well as supporting wider initiatives funded outside
of DS.
This contract is a Strategic arrangement to provide DS project delivery skills and capacity rather
than progressing multiple tactical procurements.
There are a number of Digital Roads initiatives coming through the pipeline and a ramp up of the
Digital Services Operating model across National Highways. It is anticipated this call off contract
will provide the DS Technology Programmes resource to deliver DS commitments to the end of
RIS2.

resources to enable the delivery of Digital Services commitments:
- Portfolio/Programme Management
- Project Management
- Agile Skills
- Business change
- Business Analyst
- Quality and Test
- Project Planning/Support
The high-level benefit of the project will be the ability for Technology Programmes to quickly bring
in delivery resource as and when required.
This call-off contract will provide a vehicle with a headroom through which requirements can be
sourced. The justification and funding for such services will be obtained exclusively by the projects
using the contract, via approval of their own business cases which must account for the spend
required. Access and use of the contract will be overseen by the Technology Programmes team.
