Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham City Council procured services to implement PBCS and provide Hypercare support after go-live. The requirement is an IT services engagement covering consulting, software-related implementation and ongoing support. Delivery is in Birmingham, at or associated with the council’s Council House location. The buyer is Birmingham City Council, and the procurement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It is a service contract rather than a goods supply or construction project. The work will support the council’s planned PBCS go-live and the subsequent period of operational assistance, so relevant suppliers are those able to combine implementation expertise with responsive post-deployment support.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Birmingham City Council used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made to Brovanture Limited on 15 July 2026 for £99,990, inclusive of the stated contract value currency, with a contract period from 20 July 2026 to 30 October 2026. The tender submission deadline was 6 July 2026 at 15:30. The procurement was classified as services and covered one requirement. The award is active, and the tender status is complete. The published outcome identifies Brovanture Limited as the selected supplier; the procurement data does not set out a separate scored evaluation breakdown.

This award shows demand from Birmingham City Council for suppliers that can deliver a PBCS implementation through go-live and then provide Hypercare support. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable experience of implementing PBCS, managing deployment readiness and stabilisation, and supporting users and systems immediately after launch. The work calls for a supplier able to provide both consultancy and software implementation capability, backed by dependable technical support and prompt issue resolution. Framework access is commercially important because this requirement was placed as a call-off rather than through an unrestricted tender. The award to an SME also indicates that a focused specialist can meet the council’s needs.
