Summary of the contracting process

The Arts Council of England procured the Gartner IT Research Service annual subscription, completing the contract under the award stage on August 6, 2025. As a public authority within central government, the Arts Council is located in Manchester and uses direct procurement methodologies for contracts below the competition threshold, which eliminates formal competitive sourcing processes. The subscription service falls under the services industry category, specifically research consultancy services, with the contract period spanning July 1, 2025, to April 30, 2026. The legal basis for this procurement is grounded in the UK legislation 2023/54.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses specialising in research consultancy services to engage with prominent public sector bodies, fostering potential collaborations and networking prospects. The contract, valued at £40,166.67, is particularly suited for large-scale businesses capable of managing and delivering comprehensive IT research services, akin to Gartner UK Limited, the awarded supplier based in Egham, United Kingdom. This procurement process exemplifies how specialised consultancy firms can leverage public sector demand to broaden their market presence and establish credibility within central government circles.
