Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council procured an online forms software platform for public-facing services. The requirement is for software and information systems, with associated computer equipment and supplies, classified under CPV 48000000 and 30200000. The platform is intended to support services delivered to people in the United Kingdom. This is a goods procurement, focused on supplying a digital platform rather than construction, consultancy or general IT support. The buyer is Cambridgeshire County Council, based at New Shire Hall in Alconbury Weald, Huntingdon. The requirement is relevant to software providers supplying online form tools, digital service platforms and related systems for public bodies and their users.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a restricted procedure, using a selective method. The tender submission deadline was 10 November 2025 at 23:59 UTC, and the award was made on 11 November 2025. Netcall was selected as supplier for an awarded value of £100,000. The contract runs from 17 November 2025 to 16 November 2027. The tender’s estimated value was also £100,000. The opportunity was identified as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published outcome records one active award and one supplier. The procurement was evaluated through the restricted procedure, with the award outcome confirming Netcall’s selection.

For suppliers that did not win, this procurement demonstrates a defined public-sector demand for online forms software supporting public-facing services. A credible competitor for a future requirement from this buyer would need a proven platform for building, managing and delivering digital forms, together with the ability to support services used by members of the public in the UK. Relevant strengths would include reliable software delivery, integration with public-sector service environments, accessibility and user-focused design, information security, data handling and ongoing technical support. The selected supplier was recorded as a large organisation, so competing businesses would need sufficient organisational capacity and implementation capability to deliver a council-level platform rather than a small standalone application.
