Summary of the contracting process

Luton Council has awarded a contract for new operational software to SCORO SOFTWARE LIMITED, following a tendering process. This procurement, classified under the services category, specifically targets the information technology services sector, including software development and consulting. The contract was signed on 28th July 2025, and it is set to be active from 1st September 2025 until the end of August 2027, with an option for a 12-month renewal. The contract value is £27,562.50. Given the procurement method was limited under a 'Below threshold - limited competition' framework, it suggests the tender process was somewhat restricted, catering to a specific scope and magnitude.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software package systems and IT consultancy. Given the scope of services required, including financial and time management and resource consultancy, it opens avenues for companies with existing software solutions who can integrate or enhance their offerings to public sector clients like sub-central government bodies. It especially suits small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can provide innovative digital solutions, customise software packages, and offer robust support services. Businesses can leverage this contract by showcasing their expertise in handling public sector software demands, potentially expanding their footprint in future government tenders.
