Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the Website Redevelopment Project V4SDDC022 initiated by South Derbyshire District Council, located in Swadlincote, United Kingdom, has recently been concluded with a cancellation notice issued on 15th October 2025. The project aimed at enhancing the council's website was in the services industry category, with a focus on software development services, specifically targeting networking, internet, and web page editing functionalities. Although initially active with a procurement period ending on 26th September 2025, the pursuit was terminated as the project was deemed no longer viable due to an anticipated administrative change towards a unitary council structure.

This tender initially presented substantial opportunities for businesses in the web development and software service sectors, particularly those adept in developing user-friendly, accessible internet solutions conforming to governmental standards. The procurement was tailored to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), indicating a preference for agile and innovative entrants. With a budget allocation amounting to £40,000, the project was to be awarded through an open competition process, which required insurance prerequisites and adherence to a clear set of quality and pricing criteria. Despite its cancellation, similar future tenders from the council may prove advantageous for firms experienced in public sector digital transformation projects.
