Summary of the contracting process

Borough Council of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk bought an extension to its ICT Data Programme, described as systems consultancy services. The requirement concerns continuing the council’s ICT data programme, rather than supplying general ICT equipment or unrelated consultancy. Delivery is in King’s Lynn, Norfolk. The named supplier is Entec Si Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise. The procurement is categorised as a service, and the work is relevant to firms providing systems consultancy and support for public-sector ICT data programmes.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Entec Si Ltd. The council used a selective route, calling off from a framework agreement; the award description identifies a direct award under the NHS Framework for Consultancy and Advisory Services for Health. The award date was 18 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £65,712. The contract period runs from 21 September to 11 December 2026. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The recorded tender deadline was 18 September 2026 at noon. No lots or evaluation criteria are recorded in the process details.

This award shows that the council has bought an extension to its ICT Data Programme through a framework call-off, using a health consultancy framework for the direct award. Entec Si Ltd, an SME, was selected for the systems consultancy requirement. Suppliers seeking to be credible for a comparable future requirement should be able to demonstrate relevant systems consultancy capability and the ability to support an ICT data programme extension for a local authority. Experience delivering comparable public-sector ICT data work and access to an appropriate framework route would be commercially relevant. The award provides evidence of a defined, short-term consultancy requirement; firms with a focused service offer and capacity to deliver programme support at this scale are the closest fit.
