Summary of the contracting process

The Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council has recently completed a tender process for the "Microsoft Enterprise Agreement", aimed at larger organisations requiring a flexible volume licensing programme for software and cloud services. This procurement falls under the IT services industry category, specifically focusing on software packages and information systems. The contract, valued at £3,000,000, commenced on April 1, 2019, and will run until March 31, 2021. The procurement method used was a selective, or restricted, procedure, with the tender period concluding on March 30, 2019, for submissions.

This contract presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the IT services sector, particularly those experienced in software consulting, development, and support. Businesses that can offer innovative licensing solutions and cloud services are well-suited to compete for similar future tenders, given the ongoing demand for technology solutions in the public sector. Engaging with the Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council may also allow businesses to expand their portfolio and establish long-term partnerships with local governmental bodies.
