The procurement was a mini-competition from a PCR2015 compliant DPS, namely Government Commercial Services' RM3764.3 Cyber Security Services 3.
Publisher note: A previous PA23 notice was incorrectly issued, whereas this contract was awarded following a PCR2015 DPS mini-competition so this new PCR2015 contract notice is being issued as a correction.
