Summary of the contracting process

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council, located in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom, has recently completed a direct award procurement process for the provision of IT services under the title "CBMDC 632 - BACES IT System - TCES Community Essentials". The contract, executed as a Crown Commercial Services G-Cloud 14 Call Off, spans from 16th May 2025 to 15th May 2028, with a potential 12-month extension. The services focus on Community Equipment Services IT systems, and the total value of the award is £68,175, as per the contractual agreement with CSS Europe Limited, the supplier awarded on 30th June 2025. The main industry category for this tender falls under IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support, with a concluded award stage at this point.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those engaged in consulting, software development, and Internet support, to benefit from similar procurement exercises in the future, given the reliance on essential community services systems. While the direct award method was used, which may not invite an open competitive bidding process, understanding the requirements and existing partnerships in this domain could enable strategic positioning for similar roles. Larger firms with robust community service solutions may find this procurement process illustrative of the potential market demands and partner expectations within the public sector IT infrastructure initiatives.
