Somerset Council has completed a procurement process for a contract titled "Microsoft Dynamics Engineer for Finance" in the services category. The contract involves up to 24 months of support for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations. The contracting process was completed under a direct procurement method, without competition, due to its status below the threshold.
