Summary of the contracting process

Folkestone & Hythe District Council bought post-launch implementation support for its new financial management and asset management system. The work covered completing the extraction of five years of data, storing documents on the council’s remote desktop or server, and preparing general ledger extracts for TechnologyOne’s ETL tool to transform and load into the TechnologyOne archive ledger. This is IT systems and technical consultancy, delivered for the council in the South East of England. The requirement supports the successful implementation of the new finance and asset management system, with a specific focus on data extraction, document storage and transfer of ledger information into the archive.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Moore Stephens Insight Limited. The award was made on 18 August 2026; the council’s description says the award decision was made on 19 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September to 30 November 2026 and is valued at £35,000. The council used a direct call-off from Lot 6b (strategic IT) of the ESPO 664-25 Consultancy Services framework, rather than running a standalone open competition. The submission deadline was 12 August 2026. This was a single services requirement, and the published procurement information identifies no separate lots or evaluation criteria. The call-off contract was fully executed on 15 October 2026.

For suppliers seeking comparable work with Folkestone & Hythe District Council, this award demonstrates demand for specialist post-launch support tied to financial and asset management system implementation. A credible competitor would need practical capability in extracting and handling multi-year financial data, storing supporting documents in the council’s remote IT environment, and preparing general ledger data for transformation and loading into a TechnologyOne archive ledger using its ETL tooling. Familiarity with financial system data migration and archive-ledger processes would be directly relevant. The selected supplier was an SME, and the council identified the work as suitable for SMEs. The route used was a call-off from a consultancy framework’s strategic IT lot, so experience supplying through an equivalent framework route would also be relevant.
