Durham County Council has awarded a contract titled "Granicus Azure B2C Configuration" in the industry category specific to software packages. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the award notice published on 19th February 2025. The contract involves the configuration and subscription to the Azure B2C service, required urgently for the Arcus portal, which will enable third party systems to authenticate users via the Durham County Council Do It Online account details. The contract, valued at £26,000, spans from 1st January 2025 to 31st December 2028, and covers the North East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, especially for SMEs and VCSEs that specialise in software configuration and integration services. The negotiated procedure without prior publication under the procurement method indicates a more direct selection process, meaning well-prepared and appropriately skilled businesses have a higher chance to compete.
