Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council has completed a procurement process for the "Oracle - Support & Maintenance 2025-26" contract, focusing on software-related services within the industry category associated with CPV code 72260000. The contract is intended to support the Council's major business applications and was awarded using a negotiated procedure under the threshold. Key dates include the tender period ending on 5th February 2025 and the contract period spanning from 27th February 2025 to 26th February 2026. The primary location for service delivery is Newcastle-upon-Tyne, with postal code NE1 8QH. Sophie Hendry is the contact point at Newcastle City Council for this procurement.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in software-related services to collaborate with a significant public sector entity. Although Oracle Corporation UK Ltd, a large-scale enterprise, has been awarded the contract for this period, similar tenders in the future could be advantageous for SMEs looking to expand their market presence within public sector contracts. Businesses that excel in IT support and maintenance of critical business applications and are proficient in negotiation under specific procurement methods would be particularly well-suited for such opportunities.
