Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council, serving as the buying organisation, has concluded the procurement process for a call-off contract titled "Debt Tracing Solutions" with Experian Ltd. The tender, classified under the investigation and security services industry category (CPV 79700000), is focused on delivering services in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process, using a method simply detailed as "Other," has now reached the award stage, with the contract having been awarded on 29th June 2026. The service contract period is set to run from 30th June 2026 to 29th June 2028, with a value of £10,000.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in investigation and security services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which the procurement explicitly marked as suitable. While this specific contract has been awarded to Experian Ltd, similar opportunities may exist or emerge within the public sector, offering potential revenue streams and contract-based growth. Companies aiming to enter or expand in public sector procurement, especially in similar specialised fields, should consider keeping abreast of future tenders from local councils such as the Isle of Wight Council.
