Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham City Council has recently completed the procurement process for the extension of the Two Business Analysts Services, specifically for one business analyst, under the tender ID PQ0628a. The procurement falls within the IT services industry, specifically focusing on consulting and software development, with an emphasis on services as the main procurement category. The procurement utilised a selective method, executed as a call-off from a framework agreement. Key location details for service delivery are centred in Birmingham, England, with the relevant postal code B1 1BB. The award stage of the procurement was achieved on 28th January 2026, with the contract period spanning from 13th November 2025 to 17th December 2025. The total value of this extension is £14,850 GBP, and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been appointed as the supplier.

This procurement opportunity presents potential growth for businesses focusing on IT consulting and software development services by engaging with public sector contracts. However, this particular tender may not be directly suitable for SMEs or organisations with a VCSE focus, given the nature of the procurement and the participating parties, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP being a large-scale entity. Nonetheless, businesses experienced in framework agreements and IT consulting services may find future opportunities with Birmingham City Council to be lucrative, especially when able to offer competitive solutions tailored to the public sector requirements. The procurement method of selective tendering through framework agreements suggests a preference towards established suppliers with robust service offerings, making it an advantageous prospect for those already engaged in similar frameworks.
