The buying organisation is Bracknell Forest Borough Council, based at Time Square, Market Street, Bracknell. The procurement is categorised as a service and is relevant to digital agencies, Drupal specialists, website hosting providers and technical support businesses able to work with LocalGov Drupal.

The contract was awarded on 11 June 2026 to Webcurl Limited for £116,160. The contract period runs from 12 June 2026 to 30 June 2028. The award is active. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The successful supplier is responsible for hosting, support and development for the LocalGov Drupal platform used by the council’s website. The award value is stated in pounds sterling and represents the value of this single contract.

This award provides a clear example of Bracknell Forest Borough Council’s demand for a specialist supplier able to combine reliable website hosting with continuing Drupal support and development. Businesses considering future work of this type would need practical capability across platform hosting, website maintenance, technical troubleshooting, software development and improvements to a LocalGov Drupal implementation. The requirement suits digital agencies, Drupal development firms, managed hosting providers and technical support specialists that can take responsibility for a public-sector website over an extended service period. Smaller businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises were identified as suitable organisation types, so the opportunity is not limited to large technology providers. Relevant suppliers should be able to demonstrate dependable delivery across the full service rather than isolated development work.
