Summary of the contracting process

The Sundry Debtors Management System Licence Agreement Gen 1 award process, initiated by Epping Forest District Council, involves the provision of software package and information systems. Epping Forest District Council, located in Epping, England, has led this procurement process in the services category, focusing on direct procurement through single tender action below the threshold. The contract was awarded to Ash Information Systems Limited on 8th March 2019, with a contract duration from 8th May 2019 to 4th August 2028. The procurement stage is at the award phase, reflecting a completion status, and estimates an annual value of £7,200 with options for 12 months rolling extension until termination.

This contract presents significant business growth opportunities for SMEs, specifically those specialising in software packages and information systems. With Epping Forest District Council having sought to directly procure the services without competitive tendering, it signifies potential paths for similar small-scale enterprises to offer specialised solutions to local government entities. Businesses that offer innovative, software-driven debt management solutions can leverage this type of procurement to establish or expand their public sector portfolios, especially services that enhance efficiency in debtor management systems within the region. Suitable competition includes firms with scalable technology solutions tailored for local councils and public sector administration.
