## Who can bid

- Below-threshold contract

    Buyers cannot shortlist bidders on suitability before tenders are in, so everyone gets to submit a bid (except some larger works contracts).

    [Procurement Act 2023, section 85](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/section/85)
- Sets up a framework

    Winning a place does not guarantee work: contracts are awarded later as call-offs, and the list usually stays closed for years.
- Open procedure

    Anyone can submit a full tender; there is no shortlisting stage.

## About this tender

CLASS is an ageing bespoke application and supported by ageing on premise hardware and virtualisation. It is the key function for Pay and Repay services. SLC strategy is to reduce reliance on physical data centres, and technology which needs to be renewed, maintained, and supported.

The proposal aligns with overall government Cloud First approach and modernises the technology which supports CLASS.

The requirement shall be for the design and procurement of a cloud based platform in order to meet SLC requirements in an ongoing basis.
