UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council procured an electronic point-of-sale system for its Household Waste Recycling Centres. The system is intended to take payments and support reconciliation of payment and operational data across 19 centres. The requirement is for point-of-sale software and associated provision, rather than general waste-management services or construction works. Delivery is across Kent, within the council’s household waste recycling centre network. The buying organisation is Kent County Council, a sub-central public authority. The awarded requirement is classified as goods, with the main technology need being a reliable POS platform capable of handling transactions at multiple public-facing sites and supporting accurate data reconciliation between the centres and the council’s systems.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to KAPPTURE LIMITED. The contract was signed on 12 May 2026 and runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2028, with a possible one-year extension to 31 May 2029 if all parties agree. The awarded value is £44,010 excluding VAT and £52,812 including VAT. The process used a below-threshold route, with the specific method recorded as unknown, and consisted of one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active. Additional support, such as on-site assistance, can be agreed during the contract and invoiced against an approved purchase order. The award date is 12 May 2026.

This procurement shows established demand from Kent County Council for multi-site payment technology in household waste services. A credible future supplier would need a proven electronic point-of-sale platform that can process payments reliably at numerous public-facing locations, maintain consistent records and reconcile transaction data for council oversight. The requirement also indicates value in providing implementation and operational support, including the ability to respond to requests for additional assistance such as on-site support through an agreed purchasing process. Suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate dependable software, integration or data-reconciliation capability, service support across a distributed site network, and experience delivering technology to a public-sector environment. The successful supplier is an SME, showing that this scale of requirement can be delivered by a specialist technology business.
