Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council has completed a procurement process for the support and maintenance of their SAP HR and Payroll system. This contract, titled "HR and Payroll", falls under the IT services category, specifically consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The procurement method selected was limited, with no prior publication of a call for competition, as detailed in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii). The main reason cited for this method is the specificity of the required SAP support until the new HR and Payroll system is implemented. The contract, valued at £277,934.55, was awarded to SAP (UK) Limited, a large-scale supplier based in Feltham, UK. The award was formalised on 4th December 2024, ensuring continuity of service for Leeds City Council’s HR and Payroll functions.

This tender provides a significant opportunity for businesses involved in IT services, particularly those specialising in SAP support and maintenance. Although the contract has already been awarded to SAP (UK) Limited, maintaining awareness of such tenders can benefit similar IT service providers by highlighting future opportunities within regional or local authorities. Businesses that offer niche consultancy and software support services should stay attuned to upcoming tenders as these contracts often require highly specialised skills and swift implementation to bridge system gaps, which can lead to additional, lucrative engagements. Networking with public authorities such as Leeds City Council and staying informed about their procurement needs can be highly advantageous for growth in this sector.
