Summary of the contracting process

Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council has completed a direct award procurement process for an electoral software package titled "NUNCON - Electoral Software". This contract, under the industry category of software packages and information systems (CPV code 48000000), serves the West Midlands region in the United Kingdom. The process culminated in an award on 29 April 2025 to Civica UK Limited, a large-scale supplier. The contract covers the period from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2027, with a total value of £69,960 GBP. The procurement method employed was a direct award, and the opportunity was suitable for SMEs but not specifically for VCSEs.

This tender presents opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in electoral software solutions or information systems, and those with capabilities to serve public sector clients. SMEs with innovative software capabilities can benefit from engaging in such procurement processes, either by forming partnerships with larger entities like Civica UK Limited or by anticipating similar future opportunities within local government frameworks. The direct award nature of the procurement suggests an existing relationship of trust and capability, positioning qualified niche SMEs well to compete in similar procurements where such direct methods are applied.
