Procurement method rationaleSouth Western Railway intends to award a Framework Services Agreement to Kroll for the provision of integrated cyber security monitoring, detection and response services. The Framework Services Agreement will encompass Network Detection and Response services, CrowdStrike Endpoint Protection and Cyber Risk Retainer services, with an estimated total contract value of approximately £1.2 million. SWR has determined that the proposed award satisfies the conditions set out in Schedule 5 of the Procurement Act 2023 relating to Additional or Repeat Goods, Services or Works. The services form part of SWR's existing cyber security architecture and operate as integrated and interdependent components of a single monitoring and response environment. A change of supplier would result in incompatibility with the existing solution and create disproportionate technical and operational difficulties in maintaining continuity of service. The proposed award will ensure continuity of critical cyber security capabilities whilst aligning the services within a single contractual framework and enabling future review of procurement options.
