Summary of the contracting process

Acis Group Limited procured website services covering the design and development of its website, together with ongoing hosting and support. This is a services requirement for internet services (CPV 72400000), combining initial digital delivery with continuing technical and operational support. The work is for Acis Group Limited, a public authority based in Gainsborough, and is delivered in the United Kingdom. The requirement was arranged as a single lot, covering the full website service rather than separate packages for design, development, hosting or support. It is therefore relevant to agencies, digital studios and technology providers that can deliver an end-to-end website service and then maintain and host the resulting platform.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed. Spindogs Ltd was selected, and the active contract was signed on 14 September 2026. Its value is £124,703.10 excluding VAT, or £149,643.73 including VAT. The initial contract period runs from 14 September 2026 to 13 September 2029, with a possible extension of up to two years, allowing the contract to run until 13 September 2031. Acis may give three months’ notice at any time after the initial term. The procurement used a limited method; the published information identifies the requirement and successful supplier but does not set out a separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis.

This award demonstrates established demand from Acis Group Limited for a complete website lifecycle service rather than a one-off build. A credible future competitor would need to combine user-focused website design, technical development, reliable hosting and ongoing support within one service offer. The requirement also indicates the importance of sustained delivery after launch: suppliers need the operational capacity to maintain the platform, respond to support needs and manage hosting over a multi-year relationship, with the ability to continue if the buyer exercises its extension option. The limited-competition route suggests that suppliers targeting this buyer should be ready to present a clear, relevant proposition quickly and demonstrate dependable delivery across all parts of the service.
