Summary of the contracting process

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council procured a contract management solution, described as software and information systems services (CPV 48000000). The requirement is a G-Cloud 14 call-off contract variation for use by the council. Delivery covers the United Kingdom and may also extend to the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The service concerns the provision of a contract management platform or associated solution rather than physical goods or construction works. Businesses operating in public-sector contract management software, procurement technology, enterprise information systems or related implementation services would be closest to this requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award under the G-Cloud 14 framework. Responses were due by 7 July 2025 at noon. Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council awarded the contract to Atamis Ltd on 22 July 2026 for £281,813 including the stated contract value. The contract period runs from 8 July 2025 to 7 July 2029. The award is active. The opportunity was treated as a services procurement and was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award concerns one contract management solution requirement, with evaluation through the direct-award route rather than an open competition.

This award indicates sustained council demand for a contract management software solution delivered through the G-Cloud route. Competitors preparing for a future requirement with Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council would need a credible enterprise contract management platform, supported by the capability to provide public-sector software services across the United Kingdom and potentially wider territories. The selected supplier, Atamis Ltd, is recorded as a large organisation, while the procurement was not considered suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. Suppliers are therefore likely to need established operational capacity, a mature product and the ability to support a council-wide contract management service rather than offer a small or narrowly scoped consultancy.
