Summary of the contracting process

Islington Council has recently completed the procurement process for the "EY Nursery System" project in London, United Kingdom. This project falls under the "Software package and information systems" category, indicative of the industry focus on IT solutions. The procurement process was carried out using a limited method, specifically through a competitive quotation below the threshold. The tender initially closed on 24 February 2025, with the contract period running from 24 March 2025 to 23 March 2029. The process has reached the award stage, and the contract, valued at £90,772, has been awarded to EY Works Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Milton Keynes.

The successful award of the contract to EY Works Limited showcases the opportunity for SMEs to engage in public sector procurement, especially for organisations capable of providing specialised IT services. Businesses poised to benefit include those offering innovative software solutions tailored to early years educational systems. Additionally, given the preference for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE) indicated by the buyer, similar organisations are strongly encouraged to engage in future contracts. Such projects can spur growth by establishing lasting relationships with public sector entities, enhancing business credibility, and expanding networks within the public procurement landscape.
