Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council has concluded a procurement process for an Integrated Payment Solution, classified under the software package and information systems industry. The procurement, with a total value of £590,000, targeted the South West of the United Kingdom. This contract, covering the period from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2031, was awarded directly through the Crown Commercial Services framework, specifically RM6259 Lot 1: Business Applications. The award stage was completed on 29th October 2025, with the formal notice published on 22nd December 2025.

The Integrated Payment Solution contract presents an opportunity for businesses involved in developing and managing software solutions for payment systems to align with local government requirements. Large businesses, such as Access Paysuite, who have successfully secured this contract, exemplify the scale and capability required to meet the Council’s needs. Although smaller enterprises and VCSEs were deemed unsuitable for this direct award, they may benefit from subcontracting opportunities or future tenders where the procurement strategy may vary. Businesses able to provide robust and scalable payment solutions would be well-suited for similar initiatives.
