Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Blue Badge Managed Service" was conducted by Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council and completed on 1st June 2025. This service pertains to administrative healthcare, classified under CPV code 75122000, and aimed to secure a one-year contract for the blue badge statutory service to cover assessors for the 2025/26 fiscal period. The process was carried out using a limited procurement method, specifically a call-off from the G-Cloud 14 Framework, without prior publication of a call for competition, and was awarded to NEC Software Solutions UK Limited. Located primarily in the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom (UKG36), this procurement falls outside the typical direct application of regulations, as indicated by its procurement method rationale.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in providing managed services within the healthcare sector. Large firms with robust expertise in administrative healthcare services, similar to NEC Software Solutions UK Limited, would have been well-positioned to meet the contract's requirements. The procurement method indicates that opportunities for businesses are often tied to established frameworks like G-Cloud, encouraging firms to engage with these frameworks to increase their chances of future contracts. For businesses aiming to expand into the administrative services domain within the public sector, involvement in framework agreements represents a strategic advantage.
