Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council, a notable local government entity in England, has recently concluded a procurement process titled "003738 - Digital Traffic Regulation Orders - Moving Traffic and Bus Stop Infrastructure Development Work." This procurement falls under the IT services industry, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The procurement was conducted through a selective method as a call-off from the G-Cloud 14 framework agreement. The awarded contract, valued at GBP 30,000, was finalised on 15th July 2026 with Causeway Technologies Limited, a large-scale supplier based in Buckinghamshire. The project will take place in the North East region of the United Kingdom, with the contract period starting on 20th July 2026 and concluding on 19th July 2027.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with a focus on digital solutions for transportation and public infrastructure. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find this sector particularly accommodating given the project's requirements to assist in the digital migration of historic traffic orders and the infrastructure asset survey for bus stops. Businesses with expertise in software development and consultancy that can align with public sector frameworks like G-Cloud will be well-positioned to capitalise on future opportunities related to this contract direction, potentially fostering further growth and collaboration in this field.
