Summary of the contracting process

Darlington Borough Council, a local authority in England, has completed the procurement process for the "Route Optimisation Waste" project. This was a selective procurement through a direct award from the GCloud 14 CCS Framework, with Routeware Limited being awarded the contract valued at £47,592. The industry category for this tender is 'Software package and information systems', and the service will be executed primarily at the delivery location specified by postcode DL1 5QT. The award was finalised on 25th August 2025, and the contract period spans from 1st September 2025 to 31st August 2028.

This procurement presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in software solutions for waste management optimisation to engage with local government projects. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), are particularly encouraged to partake in similar tenders due to their suitability for such frameworks. Companies providing cutting-edge software solutions and information systems distinct to public sector utilities could considerably benefit in terms of growth and partnership opportunities with government bodies like Darlington Borough Council. The selective nature of the procurement method highlights the importance of having prior framework agreements to compete effectively in such tender processes.
