With this pilot, the government is seeking to explore how DLT can be applied across the lifecycle of the debt issuance process and catalyse the development of DLT in UK financial markets. As part of the initial selection stage, interested suppliers are required to complete a qualification questionnaire and non-disclosure agreement, then submit to the Authority as instructed within the DIGIT Lead Manager Services - Expression of Interest document provided in this notice. Please submit your completed questionnaire and signed NDA via email to no later than noon UK time on 31 March 2026. This contract is exempt from the Procurement Act 2023 in line with Schedule 2 to that Act, therefore the provisions of the Procurement Act 2023 do not apply to this procurement or contract. ## CPV classification Financial markets administration services Source Find a Tender (UK) · Notice ocds-h6vhtk-0672ca-2026-03-24T14:02:45Z [View official notice](https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/ocds-h6vhtk-0672ca-2026-03-24T14:02:45Z) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
