Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council procured a cloud-based accounts payable management software service, classified as financial analysis and accounting software. The service, known as NXG Forensics, covers duplicate payment detection, supplier record cleansing, fraud prevention, reporting and associated support. It is a services requirement delivered for the council in Hereford, England. The buying organisation is Herefordshire Council. The requirement is relevant to software providers specialising in accounts payable controls, fraud and error detection, supplier-data quality, financial reporting or related managed support. It combines cloud software with practical assistance around implementation and ongoing use, rather than being a standalone supply of accounting products or general IT services.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 15 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to Fiscal Technologies Ltd on 15 August 2026 for £83,832. The contract period runs from 16 August 2026 to 15 August 2029. The award is active. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published requirement describes a single services procurement covering the NXG Forensics cloud platform and associated support. The award provides a clear outcome for this council’s accounts payable-management requirement and identifies the framework route used to appoint the supplier.

This award demonstrates demand from Herefordshire Council for specialist accounts payable technology that can identify duplicate payments, help cleanse supplier records, prevent fraud and produce management reporting. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement would need a credible cloud-based product, demonstrable capability in financial controls and data-quality management, and the capacity to provide reliable support alongside the software. Experience of working with public-sector finance teams would strengthen a future proposition, particularly where the service must support auditability, fraud-risk reduction and practical reporting. The requirement is suitable in principle for smaller businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so a specialist provider with a focused product and the operational capacity to support a council could be well placed when this type of requirement returns to market.
