Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire Dales District Council procured a web-based geographic information system (GIS) digital mapping service for use in the East Midlands. The requirement is a software and information systems service, covering access to online mapping and GIS functionality rather than physical works or hardware supply. The council is the buying organisation and the service is intended to support its digital mapping needs. The procurement was classified under CPV 48000000 and falls within the services category. This is relevant to providers of hosted GIS platforms, web mapping services and related cloud software that can deliver an accessible, maintained digital mapping environment for a local authority.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. Derbyshire Dales District Council awarded the contract to Geoxphere Ltd on 24 June 2026 for £48,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. It was a selective call-off from the G Cloud 14 Framework, using Lot 2, Cloud Software, without reopening competition. The tender submission deadline was 15 June 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off route. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and one supplier is recorded as the award recipient.

This award demonstrates a local authority requirement for a hosted web GIS and digital mapping platform delivered through a recognised public-sector cloud software framework. Competitors preparing for a future requirement from this buyer would need a mature online mapping product, reliable cloud hosting and the ability to support public-sector users. Relevant strengths include practical GIS and digital cartography capability, dependable service operation, clear user access and administration, and experience supplying software to councils. Businesses seeking comparable work should also consider whether they can secure an appropriate framework position or partner with a framework supplier, since this procurement used a framework call-off without a further competition. The stated SME suitability indicates that smaller specialist providers may be credible competitors.
