        "description": "HMRC awarded a contract to Capgemini UK Ltd to provide Business Application, Support and Maintenance (BASM) services for a set of business-critical legacy HMRC applications which were part of the Core Business Platform. Prior to this Capgemini was the incumbent service provider to HMRC for these services (and other business applications, which were part of other replacement contracts or which are now decommissioned and no longer supported). The initial Prime Contract expired in June 2022. \nThe services under the Core Business Platform are: Business Application Support and Maintenance (BASM) services; and optional business application development and enhancement services, system integration services; strategy, architecture and feasibility analysis services and decommissioning services related to the applications, which HMRC can use on a call off basis.\nThe term of the Core Business Platforms contract is 5 years. The consumption of the services for the legacy applications under the contract was planned to decrease over the contract term as some services are decommissioned.\nThe legacy applications supported by this contract are either (1) Being replaced and decommissioned or (2) Services which are aging and require some form of consolidation or modernisation in order to mitigate technical risks and prepare them for going to market in the future. This contract modification is to support these activities. \nThe contract modification is £107,271,468.",
