Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council procured a legal case management software system, specifically the Civica iCasework platform. The requirement is a renewal of the council’s existing system, supporting the management of legal cases and related information through a software package and information system. The buying organisation is East Riding of Yorkshire Council, based at Beverley County Hall. Delivery and use are in the Yorkshire and the Humber area of England. This is categorised as goods, although the requirement is technology-led and centred on providing an established legal casework platform. The selected supplier is Civica UK Ltd, the provider of iCasework. The opportunity is therefore most relevant to software publishers and technology suppliers with a legal services case management product or the ability to support this specific platform.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Civica UK Ltd on 31 July 2026. The award value is £158,977. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2030, providing a four-year renewal structured as two years plus two potential one-year extensions. East Riding of Yorkshire Council used a direct single-tender action below the applicable threshold, rather than an open competition. The procurement was evaluated through that single-supplier route and the selected award is active. The tender had a submission deadline of 31 July 2026. The requirement was not identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. There was one procurement item covering the overall system renewal.

For suppliers assessing future demand from East Riding of Yorkshire Council, this award demonstrates an established requirement for a specialist legal case management platform rather than a general-purpose software package. A credible competitor would need a mature product that supports legal case workflows, secure information management and the operational needs of a council legal service. Experience delivering and maintaining comparable public-sector systems would strengthen a future proposition, as would the ability to provide reliable implementation, support, upgrades and continuity across a multi-year arrangement. The buyer selected a large incumbent software provider through a single-tender route, so suppliers would need a clear capability to match the existing platform or offer a compelling, supportable alternative. The requirement is not positioned as SME- or VCSE-suitable, indicating a need for substantial product and service capacity.
