Summary of the contracting process

South Tyneside Council procured an attendance collection service for children in its CLA, CIN and CP cohorts, alongside data analytics. The service is intended to collect attendance information for these groups and provide analysis of the data. The work is classified as a software and information systems service, but the stated requirement centres on attendance data collection and analytics rather than a specified software product. Delivery is in South Shields, England. The buyer is South Tyneside Council.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Welfare Call (LAC) Ltd. The award date was 1 September 2026, and the contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030. The awarded contract value is £185,828. The procurement was a call-off from a framework agreement. The competition closed on 31 August 2026. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable to participate. The published information does not state evaluation criteria or divide the requirement into lots.

This award demonstrates demand from South Tyneside Council for a joined-up service that collects attendance data for children in CLA, CIN and CP cohorts and analyses that information. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need to show they can gather reliable attendance data across the relevant cohorts and turn it into useful analysis for the council. Experience delivering services involving children’s attendance information and the ability to work with sensitive cohort data would be commercially relevant. The route used was a framework call-off, so a credible supplier would also need access to an appropriate framework and be able to compete effectively through its call-off process. The council considered SMEs and VCSEs suitable for the requirement.
