Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by Staffordshire County Council involves the acquisition of a hydraulic drainage design tool, classified under the computer-aided design (CAD) system category. This procurement, identified by the tender ID IA3760, reached the award stage with the contract completed on 4th September 2025. The procurement was executed using a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, under the G-Cloud Call-Off, which indicates it falls outside the typical scope of application of the directive. The primary category of this procurement is 'goods', and it is located in the region designated as UKG24. Key dates include the contract's signing on the award date, with an option for a 12-month extension, although this has been marked as cancelled in the lot details.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in advanced software solutions or those with a strong foothold in public sector contracts. The contract, valued at £32,400, was awarded to Causeway Technologies Limited, a large-scale supplier recognised for its expertise in CAD systems. Businesses with a track record in providing innovative technological solutions to government entities, particularly those equipped to deliver tailored computer-based design tools, would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. The choice of a limited procurement method suggests potential openings for businesses that maintain close relationships with public sector buyers and can strategically position themselves to meet niche requirements swiftly and efficiently.
