Summary of the contracting process

West Yorkshire Combined Authority procured cloud-based cell site analysis software licences (CSAS), classified as networking and internet software. The requirement is for software licensing rather than physical network infrastructure or general IT services. The procurement description identifies this as a call-off for cloud software licences under the G-Cloud 14 framework, Lot 2. Delivery is in Yorkshire and the Humber. The buyer is West Yorkshire Combined Authority, based in Leeds. The stated requirement is limited to the licences; no further software functions, licence quantities or user groups are described.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Forensic Analytics Ltd. The award date was 15 October 2026. The awarded value is £90,000. The contract period runs from 17 November 2026 to 17 November 2028. This was a selective call-off from the G-Cloud 14 framework rather than a standalone open competition. The tender deadline was 14 October 2026. The procurement is recorded as a services purchase and was marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lot-by-lot awards or separate evaluation criteria are set out.

This award demonstrates demand from West Yorkshire Combined Authority for cloud-based cell site analysis software licences through a framework call-off. Forensic Analytics Ltd, identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, was selected, showing that the requirement was awarded to an SME supplier. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to supply CSAS licences as cloud software and be capable of contracting through the relevant G-Cloud framework route. The purchase is specifically for cell site analysis software, so relevant product capability and licensing provision are central to competing; the procurement does not establish a need for wider telecoms infrastructure, forensic consultancy or software development.
