Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council procured pupil-tracking software services for Dundee schools. The requirement is for educational software that supports tracking pupils across the schools; the procurement is classified as educational software development services. The service is intended for Dundee, Scotland. This is a council-wide schools requirement rather than a stated purchase of standalone equipment or general IT support.

The procurement is complete and an award was made to Computacenter. The contract was signed on 17 June 2026, at a value of £90,616.83. The stated service period is for the 2026–27 school year, with an option to extend for one further year until 2028; pupil numbers may vary. The requirement was handled through a limited award without a published competition, using the Scottish Government SVAR Framework. The stated award criterion was price. One bid was recorded for the lot.

This award shows Dundee City Council buying pupil-tracking software services for its schools through the Scottish Government SVAR Framework, with price as the stated basis for selection. Suppliers seeking to compete for the same requirement when it returns to market would need to offer software and services suited to tracking pupils across Dundee schools, and be able to price the provision competitively. The reference to variable pupil numbers points to a need to accommodate changes in the pupil population. The award went to a large supplier following a single recorded bid, indicating a procurement route and scale that may favour suppliers able to engage with the relevant framework and deliver a school-wide service.
