Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has recently completed a procurement process for the "Provision of Self Service Solution (LOT 1) and Self Access Solution (LOT 2)" focusing on the implementation of RFID systems to enhance library services across the city. This procurement falls under the goods category in the software package and information systems industry and took place within Leicester, UK. The tendering was conducted through an open procedure, with key decision dates including signings on 25th March 2021 and 17th May 2021 for the respective lots. Each lot had a quality weighting of 70% and price weighting of 30% in the evaluation criteria.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in library technology solutions, particularly those providing RFID systems and associated services.
