Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Salford City Council has successfully completed an award process for the procurement of the Causeway Project Accounting (CPA) Finance Software package and support services. This contract, valued at £137,079, was awarded to Causeway Technology through a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement falls into the industry category of software package and information systems, catering to the location of Salford, England. The award was published on 10th July 2026, and the contract is set to run from 1st July 2026 to 30th June 2029. The tender process was initiated as a direct award through the Crown Commercial Services GCloud 14 framework, with the award status marked as active.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in software systems and support services, particularly those with experience in public sector contracts. Large businesses, such as those at the scale of Causeway Technology, are particularly well-suited to compete in similar procurements due to the selective nature of the process. The framework agreement and the extended contract period provide a stable partnership, allowing growth and further development within the public sector tech services industry. While the opportunity was not oriented towards SMEs or VCSEs, it demonstrates how large-scale providers can effectively leverage framework agreements to secure long-term public sector contracts.
