Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "ESRI Technical Support" is being conducted by Northern Gas Networks Limited (NGN), located in Leeds, UK. This tender falls under the IT services category and involves providing essential software and support for NGN's Geographic Information System (GIS). The procurement method is classified as limited, with the current stage being the award phase where contracts are active. The contracting authority is seeking to extend its existing Technical Support Agreement for a minimum of three months as NGN transitions to a new GIS system, necessitating ongoing support until its implementation is complete. The total contract value is approximately £489,975, with a specific extension valued at £20,000.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with expertise in Geographic Information Systems, software development, and technical support. Companies that can offer tailored support for legacy applications or have a direct partnership with software distributors like ESRI UK would be particularly well-positioned to compete. As NGN seeks to maintain performance during its system transition, successful bidders may gain not only immediate financial benefit but also long-term collaboration prospects with a prominent utility provider in the gas and heat distribution sector.
