Summary of the contracting process

Bassetlaw District Council procured document management software compliant with Department for Work and Pensions requirements. The service covers document management software development and is intended for delivery in the East Midlands. This is a technology services requirement rather than a supply of packaged equipment or construction work. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement is classified under CPV 72212311. The procurement is titled Digital 360 and concerns the council’s need for software that supports compliant document management. Businesses specialising in public-sector document and records management systems, software development, implementation and associated compliance requirements would find the subject matter relevant.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded on 9 July 2026 to CIVICA UK LIMITED. It was run as a selective procedure and was a call-off from a framework agreement. The awarded value is £218,287.20. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. The published estimated value range was £181,906 to £218,287.20. The award was made for the document management software service described above. The opportunity was not divided into separately reported lots. It was assessed as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For a future requirement from Bassetlaw District Council, credible competitors would need to provide document management software development and demonstrate that their solution can meet Department for Work and Pensions compliance requirements. Relevant capability includes designing, configuring, integrating and supporting systems for controlled digital document management in a public-sector environment. The awarded supplier was a large organisation, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider with substantial delivery capacity for a council-wide technology service. Businesses should therefore be able to evidence comparable software delivery, implementation and support capability, together with a clear understanding of public-sector compliance and information-management needs. The framework call-off route also makes framework access and experience important for competing in similar procurements.
