Summary of the contracting process

Bath and North East Somerset Council procured a fault reporting and case management system, classified as software and information systems. This is a digital service for handling reports of faults and managing the resulting cases. The procurement lists a single item, with delivery in England. The council is the buying organisation; its address is in Keynsham. The requirement is relevant to software suppliers able to provide a system supporting fault-report intake and case management for a local authority.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to mySociety t/a SocietyWorks Ltd. The award date was 7 October 2026. The initial contract is valued at £117,300 excluding VAT, for a three-year term running from 31 October 2026 to 30 October 2029. One optional extension is available, valued at £39,100 excluding VAT; the stated total potential value, including that option, is £156,400 excluding VAT. The submission deadline was 6 October 2026. The procurement used a procedure described as “Other”; no more specific method or evaluation basis is recorded. It was a single-item procurement, with no separate lots described, and SMEs were considered suitable to take part.

The award demonstrates demand from Bath and North East Somerset Council for a fault-reporting and case-management system delivered as a managed software service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide a dependable digital route for residents or users to report faults, together with tools for the council to triage, track and manage cases through to resolution. The selected supplier’s success indicates that a specialist software provider can compete for this type of local-authority system; the procurement also identified SMEs as suitable participants. Suppliers should be able to show that their product supports practical case workflows and can be delivered for a council operating at the scale reflected by the initial multi-year contract and its optional extension.
