Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham procured an eProcurement Platform Solution as a service. The requirement is for an electronic platform to manage procurement processes, supporting transparency, efficiency and compliance across procurements covered by the Procurement Act 2023. The work falls within software packages and information systems and is delivered for the council in London. The solution is intended for council procurement activity rather than a one-off software supply, so relevant providers are those able to provide, configure and support an operational public-sector e-procurement platform. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations, making it relevant to smaller specialist software and procurement-technology providers as well as larger suppliers.

This procurement has been awarded and the process is complete. The contract was awarded to Panacea Applications Limited on 15 April 2026 for £193,716 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 29 July 2026 to 28 July 2031. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 13 February 2026 at 17:00 UTC. The council is the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham. Panacea Applications Limited is the selected supplier. The award is active, and the contract value and period are stated at award level as well as for the overall procurement. The procurement category is services, focused on an eProcurement Platform Solution.

For suppliers assessing future demand, this award demonstrates a council requirement for a managed electronic procurement platform supporting transparent, efficient and compliant purchasing. A credible competitor would need a proven e-procurement product, the ability to manage end-to-end electronic procurement processes and the technical capability to provide a reliable service to a local authority. Understanding the requirements of the Procurement Act 2023 and translating them into practical platform workflows would be important. Suppliers should also be able to support implementation, configuration, user adoption and ongoing service delivery, rather than offering software without operational support. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that specialist smaller technology businesses can compete for this type of public-sector platform service through an established framework route.
