Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council procured a master data management system and associated IT services. The requirement is to join the authority’s system records into a single data source, providing one trusted view of records relating to people and places. The work is classified as IT services covering consulting, software development, internet and support. Delivery is in the South West of England, with the council based at County Hall in Exeter. This is a services opportunity for suppliers able to design, configure, integrate or support data management systems for a local authority. The stated purpose places emphasis on bringing records together across systems and making the resulting information reliable for council use.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a tender process. The submission deadline was 27 July 2026 at 12:00. Devon County Council awarded the contract to Sentinel Partners Limited on 31 July 2026. The awarded value is £32,290 including the published GBP currency. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations. The award covers the complete master data management requirement rather than separately reported lots. The procurement is for services, and the recorded tender status is complete.

This award is relevant to suppliers specialising in master data management and related public-sector IT delivery. A credible competitor for this buyer would need to show that it can bring separate system records together into a single, trusted data source, while handling information about people and places accurately. Relevant capability may include data integration, record matching, data quality management, system configuration, technical consulting, software development and ongoing support. The requirement is suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, indicating that a smaller specialist provider can be considered for this type of council technology work. Sentinel Partners Limited’s selection demonstrates demand for a focused supplier able to deliver and support a master data management system for Devon County Council.
