Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Bromley procured a secure electronic signature and electronic seal system for use by 10 users. This is a software and information-systems requirement, covering the provision of digital tools that support the secure signing and sealing of electronic documents. The buying organisation is the London Borough of Bromley, a sub-central public authority based at Bromley Civic Centre. The service is associated with Bromley and the surrounding London Borough of Bromley area. The requirement is for a complete system rather than general consultancy or document-processing support, so relevant businesses are software providers or authorised suppliers able to provide secure electronic signature and seal functionality for a small public-sector user group.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was a direct award below the applicable threshold, made without competition, and the contract was signed on 19 September 2025. Docusign International EMEA Limited was selected as the supplier. The contract runs from 30 September 2025 to 29 September 2028. Its value is £25,208 excluding VAT, or £30,249 including VAT. The procurement comprised one completed lot covering the electronic signatures and seals system. The award is recorded as active and the contract is active. Evaluation was therefore conducted through a below-threshold direct-award route rather than an open competitive tender, with the selected supplier providing the required software system.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Bromley for secure digital signing and sealing software serving a defined group of 10 users. Competitors seeking similar public-sector work would need a dependable product that supports electronic signatures and electronic seals, with security and operational assurance strong enough for council use. Relevant suppliers are likely to be established software vendors, specialist electronic-signature providers, or authorised implementation partners able to supply and support the system directly. Credibility would come from demonstrable experience delivering comparable software to public authorities, clear arrangements for user administration and support, and the capacity to maintain a secure service throughout a multi-year contract. The requirement is focused and software-led, rather than a broad business-process transformation programme.
