Summary of the contracting process

The Education Authority has successfully completed a procurement process for a "Meeting Room and Desk Booking Software" under the ICT-22-013 tender. The project, categorised under "Software package and information systems" with CPV code 48000000, was realised through a selective procurement method specifically as a call-off from the G-Cloud 12 Framework Agreement (RM1557.12). The awarded contract, worth £194,558, began on 15th November 2022 and will run for a period of 24 months, with potential extensions of up to two additional 12-month periods each. This service will manage the booking of resources including meeting rooms, desks, and car parking across the Education Authority's corporate estate in Northern Ireland.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth within the business software sector, particularly for software companies specialising in resource management and SaaS solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) keen on establishing or expanding their foothold in the public sector through technological solutions are well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders. The procurement method, leveraging a framework agreement, reduces barriers for suitable SMEs, allowing them to demonstrate their capabilities through a streamlined, selective process. Businesses offering innovative solutions for booking and resource management, particularly those with a focus on meeting the dynamic needs of large public organisations, could find substantial growth prospects in such contracts.
