Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council has completed a procurement process for "Redhat Software Subscriptions and Support 2025 - 2026," focusing on acquiring software services within the public authority - sub-central government category. The award, which was finalised on 6th June 2025, involves the supply of software packages and information systems under a limited competition procurement method. The contract, valued at £11,373.19 net, was signed on the same date and will span from 21st June 2025 to 20th June 2026. The procurement and contract award took place in Bristol, UK, under the category of goods in the software industry, and the supplier chosen was Bytes Software Services Ltd, a large-scale business located in Leatherhead, Surrey.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in software solutions, notably those with capabilities in software package supply and support services. As the contract was awarded through a limited competition process, smaller or niche businesses with expertise in Redhat software could explore similar opportunities in the future procurement cycles. Companies with a focus on servicing public sector needs, particularly within the sub-central government domain, would be well-suited to compete for such tenders, especially those looking to expand their footprint in local government contracts.
