Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

High Peak Borough Council and Staffordshire Moorlands District Council procured a planning system and associated information technology services. The requirement falls within IT services covering software development, support, internet services and consultancy, with the system intended for use across the East Midlands and West Midlands. This is a services procurement for a council partnership, with the buyer based in Buxton, England. The named requirement is a planning system rather than a general technology supply, so relevant businesses are those that develop, implement or support software for public-sector planning functions. The scope indicates a system-led requirement with ongoing technical support, rather than standalone hardware, construction or general office services.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The submission deadline was 6 March 2023 at 12:00 GMT. The contract was awarded to NEC Software Solution on 30 June 2026 for £336,200 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029. The award is active. The published evaluation basis is the requirement for a planning system and related IT services, with delivery across the East and West Midlands. The opportunity was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates sustained public-sector demand for a dedicated planning system serving two neighbouring councils across the Midlands. Businesses best placed for a comparable requirement would have a mature planning-software product, the technical capability to configure and integrate it for council use, and the resources to provide reliable support throughout a multi-year service arrangement. Experience delivering software to local authorities would help demonstrate understanding of planning workflows, public-sector governance, data handling and user support. The selected supplier is recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider with substantial delivery capacity. A credible competitor would therefore need to show enterprise-scale implementation capability, dependable service management and the ability to support users across both councils.
