Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council procured energy management software and related IT services to manage energy and water contract data across its sites. The system is intended to monitor and target consumption and costs, and produce management reports for council service areas. It also provides an energy portal for external customers, including schools, academy trusts, town councils and the fire authority. The requirement is classified as IT services covering consulting, software development, internet and support (CPV 72000000). Delivery is in the North East of England. This is a service procurement suited to software providers with experience of energy data, customer portals, reporting and ongoing technical support for public-sector and community-facing users.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to SYSTEMSLINK 2000 LTD. on 30 July 2026. It was run as a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 23 July 2026 at 10:00. The awarded contract value is £44,561. The contract period runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2028. Durham County Council is the buyer. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the main procurement category was services. The award is active, with one supplier recorded. The requirement covers a single service rather than separately awarded lots, and the procurement outcome is a contract for the software and associated service provision.

For a future requirement of this type, credible suppliers would need a proven energy management platform that can hold and manage energy and water contract information across multiple sites. Useful capabilities include consumption and cost monitoring, targeting and analysis, configurable management reporting, and a customer-facing portal that can serve schools, academy trusts, town councils and a fire authority. Suppliers should be able to support different public-sector users through a single service while maintaining reliable access to shared data and reports. The result also indicates a route through an existing framework and a contract scale appropriate for an SME software provider. Experience delivering implementation, user support and ongoing system maintenance would strengthen a competing offer.
