Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured website support, maintenance and cloud services on behalf of Chichester District Council. The requirement supports business-critical digital services, including continued operation and technical upkeep of the council’s website and associated cloud provision. It is a software support services contract, delivered in the South East of England. The procurement is intended to maintain existing digital services rather than introduce a wholly new platform. Suppliers operating in public-sector website management, application support, hosting, cloud infrastructure and related technical services may find the requirement relevant. The work combines ongoing service support and maintenance with cloud services over a multi-year arrangement for the council’s digital estate.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 8 September 2026 to Goss Interactive Limited. The award value is £316,210 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 19 September 2026 to 18 September 2029, with an option to extend by one year under the contract terms. The route was a selective call-off from the G-Cloud 14 framework, following a longlist and shortlist exercise. The shortlisted suppliers were known to the client team and considered capable of meeting the requirement. The tender identified SMEs as suitable suppliers. The submission deadline was 3 September 2026 at 2pm. The contract supports a continuation of provision after the previous arrangement expired.

This award indicates established demand for a supplier able to keep a council website and cloud-backed digital services reliable, secure and supported over several years. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable capability in website support and maintenance, cloud service management, service continuity and the operational support of business-critical public-sector digital services. Experience working within a government cloud framework, particularly G-Cloud, would be relevant to the route used here. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can suit a smaller specialist business rather than only a large systems integrator. Suppliers should be able to evidence dependable managed services, responsive technical support, transition or continuation planning, and capacity to sustain a council-facing digital platform.
