Summary of the contracting process

Swindon Borough Council, a sub-central public authority in the United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process for the supply of an Exacom Building Safety Levy Software Module. This contract award, dated 18th June 2026, is part of the 'services' category and focuses on IT services, including consulting, software development, and support. The procurement was conducted through a direct method below the competitive threshold and is characterized by a 'light-touch' regime. The awarded contract will commence on 17th July 2026 and is set to run for an initial period of one year, with possible extensions for up to two additional years. The location of delivery is within the UKK14 region, and the contract has a gross value of £36,000.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for IT service providers, particularly those specializing in software solutions for compliance and administrative efficiency. Businesses like Exacom Systems Limited, already awarded the contract, serve as key examples of SMEs that can effectively deliver bespoke software solutions under these conditions. Enterprises eager to expand their portfolios in public sector software development and administration, especially those proficient in creating cost-effective compliance tools, are well-suited to compete in similar tenders. With public authorities keen on ensuring transparency and effective compliance systems, there is a continual demand for innovative IT service providers in this niche market.
