Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council has completed the procurement process for a "Revenues and Benefits Software" platform to assist in managing revenues and benefits as a new solution. The procurement falls under the industry-specific software package category with a direct procurement method, specifically a direct award. The contract, valued at £88,875, covers a period from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. This initiative is focused on the South West region of the United Kingdom, with the last active award dated 19th August 2025, marking the end of the procurement and the beginning of the contract delivery phase.

This procurement opportunity presents substantial growth potential for large businesses specialising in industry-specific software solutions. Given the nature of the direct award, large-scale enterprises with well-established solutions and past collaborations with public councils stand to benefit the most. The project requires firms that can provide tailored software platforms capable of supporting the efficient management of council revenue and benefits systems, making it less ideal for SMEs and VCSEs but certainly appealing for bigger firms aiming to establish or reinforce their presence in the public sector IT domain.
