Summary of the contracting process

The Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council awarded a significant contract for a Corporate Customer Relationship Management (CRM) solution, focusing on case management and IT service management (ITSM), to Computacenter (UK) Limited. This procurement process concluded with the contract becoming active from 1st July 2025 and is valued at approximately £1.66 million, extending potentially until 2032, depending on renewals. The competitive flexible procedure was adopted, with the contract primarily targeting the software package and consultancy services sector, classified under CPV codes 48000000 and 72200000. The award encompasses services in the UK, specifically within the UKL15 region.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses capable of delivering comprehensive CRM solutions with a focus on scalability, security, and transformative IT service management features. It is particularly suited for providers with experience in automating processes to integrate efficiently with IT infrastructures. Given the competitive nature of the procurement and its requirement for extended capabilities over a broad service term, firms with robust IT systems, strategic scalability plans, and expertise in software customisation stand to benefit significantly. Such opportunities allow businesses to expand their public sector client base and demonstrate capabilities in handling large-scale government contracts.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Options: Additionally, the council at its discretion, should be able to optionally call-off additional componentry within the scope of the tender during the contract term (which must be compatible with existing elements) to support the possible requirement for additional capacity, variant Supplier software or other associated services, so long as this is permitted by the relevant Procurement Regulations. For the avoidance of doubt this explicitly permits the purchase of additional componentry and upgrades from the Supplier that either enhances the overall solution and is necessary to meet future objectives identified under a CRM and ITSM solution.

Renewal: optional 2 year extension.
