Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council procured a youth justice case management system for Dorset Combined Youth Justice Service. The requirement is a software supply service supporting the management of youth justice cases. Work is delivered for the service in Dorset, with the recorded delivery location within Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. This is a public-sector technology requirement rather than a general IT support contract: relevant suppliers are those providing case management software for youth justice or closely comparable statutory services. The named buyer is Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council, a local authority. The requirement was treated as a service procurement and was associated with software supply services under CPV 72268000.

The procurement has been awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition, using the YPO Technology & Communications – Application Solutions Framework (1095). Access UK Ltd was selected as the appointed framework supplier and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 11 August 2026 for £187,957.95. The tender is recorded as complete. Its software lot is recorded as cancelled, while the associated award and contract are active. The stated rationale was that Access UK Ltd was eligible to provide the required services under the relevant framework lot. One bid was recorded. Price was the stated award criterion, and the procurement was made by direct award rather than an open competition.

This outcome indicates demand from a local authority for a specialist youth justice case management system, at a substantial single-contract scale. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would provide proven case management software designed for youth justice services, with functionality suitable for Dorset Combined Youth Justice Service and comparable statutory operating environments. Credibility would include experience supplying public-sector customers, understanding of youth justice workflows, and the ability to deliver and support a complete software solution rather than isolated technology components. Access UK Ltd’s position as an appointed supplier on the relevant YPO framework shows that framework eligibility and access to an established public-sector route can be commercially important for competing for this buyer’s requirement.
