Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Middlesbrough Council procured the renewal of the Tranman system used for fleet management. The requirement covers software packages and information systems, with the purpose of continuing the council’s existing fleet-management software capability. Delivery and use are associated with Middlesbrough. This is a goods procurement led by Middlesbrough Council, a local authority. The requirement was arranged through the Crown Commercial Service VAS RM3821 framework, indicating a framework-based route for obtaining the software renewal. The named supplier is Civica, a large UK software and information-systems provider headquartered in London. The procurement is specific to renewing the Tranman system rather than delivering general fleet services, vehicle operations or unrelated information technology.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Middlesbrough Council used a limited procedure, specifically a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition, through the VAS RM3821 framework. The award was made to Civica for the single requirement, with price as the evaluation criterion. One bid was recorded. The contract was signed on 27 May 2026 and has an active status. Its value is £37,691.98 including the stated currency of GBP. The underlying lot is recorded as cancelled, while the associated award and contract are active. The published rationale describes the purchase as a renewal of the Tranman system and states that the procurement falls outside the relevant directive’s scope.

This award is useful market evidence for suppliers of fleet-management software and related information systems. A credible competitor for this buyer’s future requirement would need to support the Tranman system or provide a demonstrably suitable route for renewing and maintaining fleet-management capability. Relevant strengths include software licensing or renewal management, implementation and technical support for public-sector fleet systems, and the capacity to deliver through an established purchasing framework. The buyer selected a direct framework route and evaluated on price, so suppliers would need a compliant route to supply and a commercially competitive offer. Experience supporting local-authority fleet operations, continuity of an existing system and reliable account and service management would strengthen credibility when this requirement next reaches the market.
