UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk County Council, a sub-central public authority based in Norwich, has concluded a procurement process for the provision of AutoDesk per-user annual subscriptions. The procurement falls under the industry-specific software category with a focus on goods, and the contract's total value amounts to £115,000 in GBP. This process, which used the "Below threshold - unknown" procurement method, reached completion with MAN AND MACHINE LIMITED being awarded the contract. The contract is active and spans from 16th February 2026 to 16th February 2027.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in software provision to expand their market presence by delivering required goods to established public organisations. Companies skilled in offering industry-specific software solutions, particularly those that can manage per-user subscriptions effectively, are ideal candidates for such contracts. The involvement of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), like MAN AND MACHINE LIMITED, highlights the council's recognition of innovative solutions from smaller businesses in the procurement landscape.
