Summary of the contracting process

Oldham Council has successfully awarded a contract for "ICT86 CR: IBM / Repsonsiv Support & Maintenance FY 25 26 Jul 25," marking the completion of the procurement process in the award stage. The contract is valued at £105,300 and falls under the category of IT services which include consulting, software development, Internet, and support, as classified by the CPV code 72000000. The effective contract period is set from 25th July 2025 to 25th July 2026. The procurement method employed was selective, entailing a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract pertains to the delivery of services in the OL11UT area of England, indicating a geographically specific location for execution.

This procurement process presents opportunities for businesses involved in IT services and software support, particularly those experienced with cloud automation platforms like Azure. Although the contract has been awarded to Responsiv Solutions LTD, an SME operating out of Berkshire, other similar enterprises can evaluate this as a case study to understand the competitive landscape and potential requirements for future procurements by councils or similar public sector bodies. The selected supplier is not registered as a VCSE entity, suggesting such businesses may need to form strategic partnerships if they wish to pursue similar opportunities.
