Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the ENCTS Back Office and ISAM annual license, organised by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council, has reached the award stage. This contract falls under the IT services industry category, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, Internet, and support. Located in the Yorkshire and the Humber region, the contract was awarded on 21st July 2026 and is valued at £30,253.47. Procured through a limited competitive quotation method due to its below-threshold value, the contract spans from 1st September 2026 to 31st August 2027, fulfilling statutory requirements as per the 2007 Travel Concession Act.

This tender provides a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those experienced in back-office functionalities and software support for government schemes. While the contract has been awarded to Yorcard Limited, it highlights a demand for specific IT services that similar businesses can explore in future opportunities, especially those capable of handling large-scale needs for local government projects. Such contracts, while below major governmental thresholds, still signify substantial potential for businesses aiming to expand their portfolio in public sector collaborations.
