Summary of the contracting process

Staffordshire County Council has announced the award of a contract for the provision of a managed service for the cancellation of Council Tax Discounts, primarily the Single Person Discount (SPD). This 24-month contract, with an award value of £110,000, falls under the Financial Consultancy Services category and targets the West Midlands region. The procurement method used was a call-off from a framework agreement, and the contract period is set from 1 October 2024 to the end of the same day.
