This tender was in the award stage as of 11th September 2017, with the contract valued at £15,000. The tender ended on 3rd May 2017, with the contract period commencing on 4th May 2017 and concluding on 31st March 2018. The delivery location for the services was in the South West region of the United Kingdom, and the procurement method utilised was a limited competitive quotation below threshold.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in IT and software development services to engage in the public sector market. Companies that can provide technical support, consulting, and related IT services would be ideally positioned to compete, capitalising on the expertise required to fulfil the contract's specifications. The limited competitive nature of the procurement method indicates that a focused pool of suppliers might have engaged in this process, making it crucial for interested businesses to maintain awareness of similar future opportunities.
