Summary of the contracting process

The Suffolk County Council is conducting a procurement process for a Social Media Management Platform, aimed at providing software solutions for public sector organisations to facilitate audience engagement, team management, and social media performance analysis. The procurement phase is currently at the award stage, with the contract period running from 8 April 2019 to 7 April 2023. This selective procurement method was initiated via a call-off from a framework agreement, and the awarded contract has a total value of £57,600. The relevant delivery addresses are located in the East of England, United Kingdom, and the tender period concluded on 5 April 2019.

This opportunity is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialised in IT services, especially those focusing on software development and consulting. Businesses that provide social media management software or related IT services could significantly benefit from this contract, given the growing demand in the public sector for effective digital engagement tools. With the Suffolk County Council's emphasis on strong support and service infrastructure, firms that can demonstrate expertise in these areas will be well positioned to compete in future procurement activities.
