Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority is titled "Gartan Roster" and falls within the services category, specifically concerning IT services, consulting, software development, Internet, and support. Located in Bradford, United Kingdom, the tender reached the award stage on 2nd July 2026. It involved a direct award procurement method, a decision made to ensure continuity of support for the transition phase leading into a new HRM solution anticipated in 2027. This direct award was given to TOTALMOBILE LIMITED, with a contract period starting on 15th August 2026 and ending on 15th August 2028. The overall gross value of the contract stood at GBP 259,284.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for enterprises operating in IT services and support. While the direct award limits competition, it highlights the importance of establishing ongoing relationships with public authorities to secure similar opportunities. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in cloud hosting, payroll integrations, and workforce rostering solutions could potentially be well-suited for future opportunities in this sector. Collaborations or partnerships with organisations like TOTALMOBILE LIMITED can also pave the way for subcontracting opportunities, assisting in gaining experience and visibility within public contracts.
