Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

BIP SOLUTIONS LIMITED recently awarded a contract for the ongoing licence, maintenance, and support of CFRMIS software for the period of May 2024 to April 2027, following the completion of a procurement process initiated in 2024. The contract, valued at £38,416.20, targets software support services within Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, below threshold, with the procurement process carried out by Humberside Fire & Rescue Service, headquartered in Hull. This procurement has progressed from the award stage, with Civica UK Ltd selected as the supplier, marking the contract period from 3 March 2024 to 2 March 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software support services, especially those capable of providing comprehensive maintenance and licensing solutions. Large enterprises like Civica UK Ltd are apt contenders, though the contract also highlights suitability for VCSE (Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise) organisations, albeit not targeting SMEs. Companies operating within or adjacent to Yorkshire and the Humber may benefit from the regional focus, providing a chance to expand their client base while contributing to essential public service infrastructure. Business growth could stem from leveraging these services to enhance regional public sector capabilities or by developing partnerships with entities like Humberside Fire & Rescue Service.
