Summary of the contracting process

DELT Shared Services Limited procured software and information systems to replace Avaya with Microsoft Teams for PCC users. The requirement covered 111 user licences, forming a unified communications and management solution. The procurement falls within the software package and information systems category (CPV 48000000). DELT Shared Services Limited is based in Plymouth and is the public-sector buyer. Delivery covers England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, the South East and the South West. The requirement is therefore relevant to software suppliers, communications specialists and technology partners able to provide Microsoft Teams-based unified communications and support users across a broad English delivery footprint.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct procedure below the threshold, without competition. It consisted of one lot. Bytes Software Services Limited was awarded the contract, which was signed on 4 December 2025. The active contract runs from 4 December 2025 to 3 December 2028. Its value is £7,950.55 excluding VAT and £9,540.66 including VAT. The published outcome identifies software and information systems as the procurement category. The requirement was handled without a competitive tender, so the award route was direct rather than an open or selective competition. The contract is active, and the recorded award is linked to the full 111-licence Avaya-to-Teams replacement requirement.

This outcome is a useful indicator of demand for unified communications software and Microsoft Teams migration work within DELT Shared Services Limited. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to replace or transition Avaya-based communications into Teams, supply and manage user licences, and support a deployment serving 111 users. Relevant capability includes software licensing, communications platform integration, migration planning, configuration, user enablement and ongoing technical support. Suppliers should also be able to deliver consistently across England and understand the operational needs of a public-sector organisation. The selected supplier was a large software services business, indicating that the requirement was suited to an established technology provider with the capacity to supply licences and manage a multi-year service arrangement.
