Summary of the contracting process

The ExtraCare Charitable Trust procured a one-year renewal of external website hosting, maintenance and support. This is a computer-related services requirement covering the hosting and ongoing technical support of the Trust’s external website. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is The ExtraCare Charitable Trust, a public authority based in Coventry. The requirement is relevant to website hosting providers, managed service providers and digital agencies with the technical capability to host, maintain and support an organisation’s public-facing website. It may also suit suppliers able to combine reliable infrastructure with responsive website support and maintenance services for a charitable or public-sector organisation.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded directly without competition, under a below-threshold procedure. Design Religion Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise based in Worcester, was selected for the single requirement. The contract was signed on 4 August 2026 and has a one-year term from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. Its value is £27,090 excluding VAT, or £32,508 including VAT. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and the tender reached complete status. The award is active and the contract is active. This outcome shows that the buyer used a direct, non-competitive route for a relatively small website hosting, maintenance and support contract.

For suppliers assessing future work from The ExtraCare Charitable Trust, this procurement demonstrates demand for an externally hosted website supported through a continuing maintenance and support service. A credible competitor would need to provide dependable website hosting, routine technical maintenance and responsive support for a public-facing organisation. The requirement was fulfilled by an SME, indicating that delivery does not necessarily depend on a large national technology provider. Suppliers with experience supporting charitable, public-sector or similarly service-focused organisations may be well placed, particularly where they can demonstrate operational reliability, continuity of service and the ability to manage the website environment throughout a contracted service period. Relevant businesses include managed hosting providers, web agencies and specialist digital support firms.
