Summary of the contracting process

The East Riding of Yorkshire Council has concluded a procurement process for the "Provision, Support & Maintenance of the Integrated Payroll & Human Resources System," classified under Software package and information systems. The contracting authority, a regional or local authority, sought to fulfil its needs for system maintenance and support, specifically tied to the CPA code 48000000, within the region of UKE12. This procurement followed a limited method, awarded without prior competitive tendering due to technical reasons, and it involved the direct award of a contract. The contract was awarded on 30 December 2022, with the award made active in 2025, reflecting the procurement's completion status.

This procurement creates opportunities for businesses that specialise in software services, particularly in providing specialised technical support and maintenance functionalities for integrated systems. The contract, valued at £1,654,273, was awarded to MHR International UK Ltd, a large business with the technical capacity, indicating limited competition due to the specific technical requirements. This represents a growth opportunity for businesses capable of delivering bespoke software solutions and support services, especially those that can cater to unique client specifications within administrative public sectors. Companies looking to engage in direct awards where competition is limited for technical or licensing reasons might find this case particularly illustrative of potential procurement avenues.
