This contract falls under the industry category of software package and information systems (CPV code 48000000) and is connected with the broader sector of goods procurement. The location of delivery is Swindon, England, with postal code SN2 1PL. The process has reached the award stage, with the contract period slated from the start date of 1st July 2025 to 30th June 2026.
