Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Cyngor Gwynedd, a public authority in Caernarfon, Wales, managing a tender titled "Labeli Cyfnodau Cadw - SharePoint Online". This tender, associated with the IT services sector, aims to apply retention labels within SharePoint Online to comply with Cyngor Gwynedd's retention schedule. Initially launched on 21st January 2026, the tender underwent multiple stages including updates and eventual cancellation by 18th March 2026. The procurement method followed an open competition approach, with deadlines for submissions set for 20th February 2026 and enquiries concluding on 6th February 2026. Despite the cancellation, the process illustrates the buying organisation's intent to reassess its strategy in alignment with Welsh devolved regulations.

This tender presented potential business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs or organisations involved in software package and information systems, and IT services such as consulting and support. Given the focus on implementing SharePoint Online retention labels, businesses with expertise in software development and compliance systems were well-suited to compete. The tender was valued at £20,000, providing a substantial opportunity for companies capable of meeting quality and price criteria set at 30% and 70% respectively. Though the tender was cancelled, understanding the requirements may assist businesses in future public contracts with Cyngor Gwynedd and similar authorities.
