How to win: Central Service Desk and Lead Integrator

About this contract

His Majesty's Treasury (HMT) intends to procure a combined Central Service Desk and Lead Integrator service, delivered by a single supplier, to support the Department's technology strategy, service integration, operational resilience and end-to-end service management.

The future service will be shaped by five strategic imperatives: • Delivering value for money. • Supporting digital modernisation, including AI-assisted support and enhanced self-service capabilities. • Implementing governance arrangements proportionate to HMT's size and operating model. • Maintaining resilience across a security
