UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured Bacsactive-IP Web Enterprise, a software-as-a-service platform supporting Bacs payment activity. The requirement combines software and information systems, financial services, and IT services including software support and internet-based services. The service is for use in Derbyshire County Council’s operations, with delivery in the United Kingdom. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement falls within the services category. The contract covers a single requirement rather than a range of separately described lots. The named service is associated with Accountis Europe Ltd, a specialist provider of the Bacsactive-IP Web Enterprise SaaS product. Businesses relevant to this requirement are likely to operate in payment software, financial technology, managed software services, or associated implementation and support.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Accountis Europe Ltd was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 31 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2031. Its value is £170,000 excluding VAT, or £204,000 including VAT. The buyer has reserved options for additional licences and modules. The procurement used one completed lot. The published outcome identifies the requirement as a service contract for Bacsactive-IP Web Enterprise SaaS. The award is active and the contract is active. The available record does not set out a separate award date or detailed scoring criteria, so the direct-award route, the defined SaaS requirement and the contract terms are the principal indicators of how the supplier was selected.

This award demonstrates established public-sector demand for hosted Bacs payment software with associated financial-service and IT support capability. A future competitor would need to provide a credible SaaS product for Bacs-related payment operations, together with dependable software maintenance, internet-based access and user support. Relevant businesses include payment technology providers, financial software companies, managed service providers and IT firms with experience supporting business-critical systems. The requirement also indicates potential value in offering modular functionality and additional licences, rather than only a fixed software package. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate that their platform and support model can serve a county council’s operational needs over a sustained contract, with the technical capability to manage software, information systems and payment-related services as an integrated offering.
