Summary of the contracting process

The National Audit Office (NAO) has awarded a contract titled "CPT_24_37 - Space Booking System" under the industry category of administration software packages. This contract, valued at £45,000 including VAT, was awarded to Hubstar Systems Limited. The procurement process, which was at the award stage by 6th September 2024, involves a direct procurement method, specifically a single tender action below the threshold. The contract period commenced on 1st August 2024 and is set to end on 31st July 2026, with an initial one-year agreement and a one-year extension option. The solution will be deployed to support the NAO’s offices in the United Kingdom.

This tender offers considerable opportunities for growth, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the administration software sector. Given the single tender approach, businesses with solutions that ensure service continuity and minimal disruption stand a good chance of competing for similar future contracts. SMEs specialising in office management and booking system software would particularly benefit, as this procurement demonstrates the NAO’s investment in digital workplace solutions and may lead to more extensive and competitive tenders post the 2025 review.
