Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Camden has completed the procurement process for the "Elections Management System and Associated Services" under the CPV code 72260000, which pertains to software-related services. The procurement, focused on providing an Election Registration and Management CRM System, utilised a "limited" method of award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to it falling outside the scope of the directive. Although the lot associated with the procurement was initially cancelled, the award has been made with an active contract signed on 1st February 2025. The contract, valued at £88,525, was awarded to Democracy Counts, highlighting the successful conclusion of the procurement process in this domain within the UK region.

This tender represents a significant business opportunity particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in software and related services, as evidenced by the involvement of Democracy Counts, a SME from Warrington. Businesses equipped with expertise in CRM systems and those familiar with public service requirements would be well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders. The contract underscores the potential for growth and development for companies looking to engage with local government authorities like the London Borough of Camden in system development and management services.
