Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Lincolnshire Council procured a DevOps platform through its PS Framework. The requirement is classified as software supply services and concerns the provision of a platform supporting DevOps activity. Delivery is associated with North Lincolnshire, including the council’s area in and around Scunthorpe. The buyer is North Lincolnshire Council, a local authority. The procurement was structured as a framework call-off rather than a standalone open-market requirement. This is relevant to software suppliers, DevOps platform providers and firms able to supply and support public-sector technology through an established framework. The requirement’s scope is described at a high level as a DevOps platform, so businesses would need to assess the underlying framework specification and any service, support and integration obligations before treating it as a direct match.

The procurement is complete and an active award was made to Phoenix Software Limited. The award date is not recorded, while the contract was signed on 28 May 2026. The contract value is £39,370.93. The council used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, with the stated rationale that this was a call-off from a framework. The published award information relates to the framework call-off, and one bid was recorded. The procurement’s sole lot was marked cancelled, although the associated award is active, so the outcome should be checked against the underlying framework and contractual records. The stated award criterion was price. No contract end date or duration is provided in the procurement data.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from North Lincolnshire Council for a DevOps platform supplied through its PS Framework, with price as the stated basis for selection. A competitor seeking similar council work would need access to the relevant framework and the ability to provide software supply services for public-sector technology requirements. Credibility would depend on demonstrating a suitable DevOps platform, reliable delivery and support arrangements, and a price competitive enough for a price-led evaluation. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement was within the potential delivery scale of a smaller specialist technology business rather than necessarily requiring a major systems integrator. Firms with comparable platform capability and framework experience should monitor this buyer’s future technology requirements and prepare evidence of value, service support and delivery capability.
