This procurement falls under the IT software package industry category and was awarded via a direct procurement method following a single tender action. The total value of the contract is £35,690, with the contract period commencing on 31st March 2022 and concluding on 30th March 2023. The procurement process concluded on 31st March 2022, with the award publicly announced on 4th April 2022.
