Summary of the contracting process

The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman, based in Manchester, has awarded a contract titled "PR2201 - Provision of Drupal Website Ongoing Support, Maintenance and Development Services" under the industry category of Software package and information systems. The procurement process utilised the 'Other' method leading to a direct engagement with S8080 Limited, an SME located in Swansea. The contract commenced on 1 January 2024 and runs until 31 December 2025, with a potential extension of 12 months. Valued at £44,010, this procurement focuses on ongoing IT services such as consulting, software development, and internet support within the United Kingdom, specifically in England.

The contract's substantial duration and the possibility of an extension offer businesses a stable work period to innovate and expand their service offerings. SMEs will find this contract particularly suitable given the buyer's openness to small enterprises, while VCSEs might also have a competitive niche due to the procurement's inclusive criteria.
