Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by North Tyneside Council involved the awarding of a contract for a "Resilient Storage Upgrade" project. This process, classified under the software package and information systems industry category (CPV code 48000000), took place in the North East of the United Kingdom. The procurement was executed through a selective process, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, resulting in an award to Proact UK Limited. The tender status is listed as complete, with a contract period from 8th September 2025 to 7th September 2030. Key players in this procurement include North Tyneside Council as the buyer and Proact UK Limited as the supplier.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for large-scale businesses proficient in information systems and software packages, given the complex requirements involving data replication and long-term software maintenance. Companies with expertise in delivering resilient storage solutions to public sector bodies, such as those capable of providing comprehensive professional services including migration, would be well-suited to compete. The project also favours small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), offering them a platform to further establish their capabilities in the government sector, though this specific contract was awarded to a large enterprise.
