Summary of the contracting process

Middlesbrough Council has completed a procurement process for the renewal of CISCO EA licensing. This procurement, classified under IT services, specifically consulting, software development, Internet, and support, was managed through a limited competition method as it was below the threshold. CISILION LIMITED was awarded the contract for a period starting from 26 January 2026 to 25 January 2027. The contract, signed on 22 December 2025, is valued at £113,782.44, and the services are to be delivered within the UK region, specifically in Middlesbrough. The procurement stage reached completion on 22 December 2025, as indicated by the active status of the award.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities, especially for firms specialising in IT services, as seen in the collaboration with CISILION LIMITED, a SME based in Leatherhead. Companies able to provide consulting, software development, and robust IT support would find contracts like this beneficial for expanding their service portfolio and establishing long-term partnerships with local government bodies. The sub-central government public authority context also means that businesses capable of meeting public-sector requirements and regulations would be well-suited to compete in such tenders.
