UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority is seeking a supplier to design and build a new corporate website to enhance accessibility and user engagement. This project falls under the IT services industry category, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, Internet, and support services. This procurement is at the tender stage, with an open competition method, inviting bids from eligible parties. The deadline for bid submissions is 20th February 2026, with an enquiry period closing on 13th February 2026. The project is connected with the Authority's headquarters in Huntingdon, within the region of UKH, United Kingdom. The contract is intended to start on 13th March 2026 and could potentially extend until 2028, with the possibility of renewal based on agreed terms.

This tender presents substantial business opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in website design, digital transformation, and IT consultancy. Given the project's scope — including integration of various existing platforms into a cohesive corporate website — businesses with expertise in large-scale web development and user experience optimisation are well-positioned to leverage this opportunity for growth. The emphasis on customer focus and user journey improvement further underscores the need for innovative solutions that adeptly showcase both the Authority’s impact and the region's economic achievements. Such a project could significantly bolster a supplier's portfolio, especially within the public sector domain, potentially unlocking further contracts within this and other governmental entities undergoing similar transformations.

Notice Information

Notice Title

DESIGN & BUILD OF A NEW CORPORATE WEBSITE FOR THE CAMBRIDGESHIRE & PETERBOROUGH COMBINED AUTHORITY

Notice Description

The Authority is looking to appoint a single supplier to design and build a new corporate website for the Authority. The Authority's current website does not comply with the current accessibility requirements for public sector bodies. The Authority, like other Mayoral Authorities is currently going through an exciting period of change and transformation, which will see the Authority become much more customer focused. The new website will need to reflect this, with a greater emphasis on audiences, engagement and the user journey. Currently the Authority has several sub domains and other websites, examples include a Passenger Transport website, a Have Your Say Consultations site, the State of the Region Data Portal and the CPCA Growth Hub site. It is our intention to fold these into the main corporate website and remove the current duplication / confusion caused by multiple websites all owned by the Authority. Suppliers should be aware of plans to launch a Local Visitor Economy Partnership with an associated website presence; this will be a standalone site not covered by this commission and a Visitor Economy presence will be required on the website. The Authority's site needs to reflect the core roles and responsibilities of the Authority, with a simple easy to navigate site map. It also needs to be an effective showcase, demonstrating the impact of the organisation and region's economy unequivocally.
