Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire County Council procured a hosted case management system for its coroners service. The service covers the system itself, together with hosting, ongoing support and training. This is specialist software for managing coroners’ cases, rather than a general medical software package. The work is for the council’s coroners service in Lincoln, Lincolnshire.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to WPC Software Limited on 26 June 2026. The council used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period runs from 11 September 2026 to 10 September 2030. The published award value is £0, so it does not provide a usable indication of the contract’s commercial scale. The service was procured as a single requirement, with no separate lots described. The opportunity was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Award criteria are not stated in the available procurement data.

For suppliers of coroners’ case management systems, this award confirms demand from Lincolnshire County Council for a dedicated system delivered as a hosted service, with support and training included. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that its platform can manage the coroners service’s casework and that it can provide reliable hosting, user support and effective training as part of an integrated offer. The council used a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable work would benefit from access to relevant frameworks and experience delivering through that route. The stated SME unsuitability indicates that the buyer viewed the requirement as beyond the intended scope for smaller suppliers; firms should be prepared to evidence the capacity to sustain the software and associated services over a multi-year contract.
