Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council has completed a procurement process titled "SN260772 Coroners Case Management System" aimed at acquiring software packages and information systems. The primary focus was to enhance the coroners' case management capabilities by implementing an electronic system to streamline operations from referrals to closures. This procurement falls under the "goods" category and was executed following a limited procurement method through the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud framework, specifically the RM1557.14 G-Cloud 14. Civica UK Limited was awarded the contract on 30th June 2026, with a contract value of £184,860. The delivery region specified for this tender was UKJ4, and the procurement process did not involve a prior call for competition due to its classification as outside the scope of the directive.

This opportunity offers significant growth potential for businesses, particularly those in software development and IT services, as it involves providing complex information systems critical to public services. Companies that specialise in developing or offering case management systems or related software applications would find this type of tender well-suited to their capabilities. The successful collaboration with a regional authority can enhance credibility and open pathways to further contracts within the public sector or across other geographical markets, especially for firms that can demonstrate expertise in deploying and managing similar IT solutions.
