Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by Stroud District Council involved the engagement of public consultation software through a call-off from a framework agreement. This completed tender, titled "Public Consultation Software EngagementHQ," falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on software package and information systems. The procurement followed a selective method and progressed to the award stage, with the contract awarded to Granicus-Firmstep Ltd. Located in Stroud, England (postcode GL5 4UB), the process concluded with the contract starting on 1st July 2026 and set to run until 30th June 2030. The total value of the contract is £68,125.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software solutions, particularly those with expertise in public sector engagement tools. Although the procurement was selective, indicating a focus on specific suppliers, companies involved in similar frameworks may find value in understanding how to participate in such agreements. Despite no specific emphasis on SMEs or VCSEs, businesses capable of delivering comprehensive software and information systems, and who frequently engage in public sector contracts, would be ideally positioned to capitalise on similar opportunities in the future.
