Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council procured waste management software licences and in-cab technology as a managed software service. The requirement covers systems used to support waste management operations, together with technology installed or used in vehicles. The recorded delivery location is Northallerton, North Yorkshire, at postcode DL7 8AD, with delivery coverage also recorded across the United Kingdom and other territories. The procurement falls within software packages and information systems (CPV 48000000). The council is the buying organisation and the service requirement is relevant to suppliers providing waste collection, fleet, in-cab, routing, operational management or related waste-sector software systems. It is a technology-led service rather than a works or physical goods contract.

This procurement has been awarded and is complete. The council used a direct award through G Cloud 14 rather than an open competition. The tender deadline was 28 June 2026 at 12 noon, and the contract was awarded on 29 July 2026 to Whitespace Work Software Limited. The awarded value is £439,440 excluding any separately stated amounts, in GBP. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2030 and includes an additional optional 12-month extension, giving a potential four-year term. The opportunity was treated as a services contract and was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The procurement has one recorded award and one supplier.

This award shows that North Yorkshire Council buys an integrated waste-management technology service combining software licences with in-cab vehicle technology, rather than separate standalone applications. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate a mature platform that supports operational waste services, works reliably in vehicles and can be supplied and supported as a multi-year service. Relevant capability would include integrating back-office waste-management functions with field or fleet technology, maintaining software licences, and delivering dependable implementation and ongoing support at council scale. The selected supplier is a large company, so competitors should be prepared to evidence comparable organisational capacity, technical resilience and experience serving public-sector or similarly complex waste operations.
