Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Unit 4 Cloud Consultancy" was undertaken by Tendring District Council, engaging in a direct award method under the category of IT consultancy services (CPV code: 72000000). The procurement, completed in its 'award' stage, was specifically aimed at cloud consultancy services from the G Cloud 14 framework. The appointed supplier, G7 Business Solutions Limited, will deliver services from 12th November 2025 to 30th April 2026 in England, United Kingdom, under a contract valued at £44,335. This procurement is past the tender period which concluded on 17th October 2025, and the award was formally published on 24th November 2025.

This tender provides an opportunity for businesses involved in IT consultancy and cloud services to consider similar frameworks such as G Cloud for securing public sector contracts. Although this specific contract was awarded directly and was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), other businesses in the cloud services industry might explore similar opportunities as the framework facilitates streamlined processes. Companies with solid experience in cloud consultancy and capability to deliver IT services in the public sector would be well-suited to compete for such contracts, potentially providing substantial business growth in servicing government contracts.
