UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority procured software consultancy services from a contractor supporting its Oracle Programme and Duties Programme. The requirement is for specialist contractor input to work on the Oracle environment and support duties-related programme activity. Delivery is in South Yorkshire, for a public-sector organisation based in Sheffield. The procurement is categorised as services, with the related classification describing software consultancy services. This opportunity is relevant to businesses providing Oracle consultancy, programme support, implementation assistance or specialist technology contractors for public authorities. It is focused on an individual contractor requirement rather than the supply of software products, general IT support or construction and other physical works. The buyer is South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority.

The procurement has been awarded through a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The tender is complete and the single lot was awarded to Square One Resources Limited. The award is active and the contract was signed on 25 June 2026. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 March 2027, with a possible four-month extension if the services are still required, allowing an extension until 31 July 2027. The contract value is £117,000 excluding tax and £169,000 including tax. Evaluation was not conducted through a competitive process because this was a below-threshold direct award. The contract is active and the supplier is providing the commissioned services.

This procurement demonstrates demand from South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority for specialist Oracle and duties-programme contractor support at a substantial individual-assignment scale. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement of this kind would have demonstrable Oracle consultancy capability, experience supporting public-sector transformation or business systems programmes, and the ability to provide an individual specialist who can contribute across programme delivery and duties-related work. Credibility would come from evidence of delivering comparable Oracle assignments, understanding complex public-service operating environments, and supplying consultants who can work effectively with a combined authority and its programme teams. Recruitment and technology consultancies with access to experienced Oracle contractors may also be relevant, provided they can show suitable programme experience and dependable delivery capacity for a sustained assignment.
