The procurement, led by Hampshire County Council as the buyer, is captured in a selective award process with Phoenix Software Limited serving as the supplier. This contract, classified under the industry category of office and computing machinery, will cater to the region of South East, United Kingdom, and spans from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2030. The total contract value amounts to £345,005. Key dates include the tender period closing on 30th September 2025 and the award confirmed on 30th September 2025.
