Burendo lands ‘multi-million-pound’ United Kingdom Health Security Agency delivery and DevOps contract

Leeds tech consultancy Burendo has been appointed as the technical delivery partner on a ‘multi-million-pound’ contract with the United Kingdom Health Security Agency (UKHSA).

Burendo will support fundamental aspects of its operating model, as well as providing core technology product development services.

The UKHSA is responsible for protecting society in England and safeguarding public health from the impact of serious health threats. Acknowledging the current environment and challenges in the industry, the UKHSA is actively modernising its IT operations to strengthen the UK’s resilience to threats including infectious diseases, chemical and biological incidents, radiological risks, and nuclear threats.

Burendo will serve as the UKHSA’s trusted development operations (DevOps) partner commencing this month. The three-year agreement is a major step forward in the advancement of the UKHSA’s DevOps capabilities as the Burendo team delivers hands-on expertise to ensure the UKHSA can cope with any incident, no matter how severe.

“We are immensely proud to be chosen as the UKHSA’s partner of choice for the delivery and support of their critical technology solutions. Being awarded this contract is testament to the exceptional dedication and expertise of our entire team, who are consistently recognised by clients for delivering outstanding results,” said Glenn Crossley, co-founder of Burendo. “We are thrilled to be partnering with the UKHSA to advise and help them deliver crucial work to protect the UK public.”

The UKHSA’s partnership with Burendo will be multi-disciplinary and multi-layered, delivering DevOps teams who will own, build, and run key live services. The team is well equipped to handle any complex development requirements and can provide expertise around any problematic or critical issues.

“We worked in collaboration with Burendo to create a multi-threat dashboard which is instrumental in helping us to understand the infectious disease landscape. Burendo delivered a fantastic piece of work, and we are thrilled to be working with the team again. We’re looking forward to growing our partnership and seeing what more we can achieve together,” added Giulio Saggese, deputy head of development and operations, UKHSA.
