Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Sutton procured hosting and software support for the Sutton Information Hub. This is an ongoing technology support service for the council’s information hub, rather than a purchase of general health or social care services; the health and social work classification attached to the award does not explain the described requirement. The service is delivered in Sutton, London. The council is the buyer, and the award covers one lot. The published scope identifies hosting and software support but does not set out particular support tasks, service levels or technical specifications in the available process details.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Sutton awarded the contract directly to IDOX Software Ltd, without competition, using a below-threshold procedure. The contract was signed on 1 April 2026 and runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2028. Its gross value is £48,000. Evaluation criteria are not stated in the process details. The award covers one lot and is for the Information Hub hosting and software support requirement. This was a completed direct award, not a competitive selection in which suppliers submitted bids against stated evaluation criteria.

This award shows that Sutton buys hosting and software support for its Information Hub through a direct, below-threshold route, and selected a large software supplier for the service. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate they can host and support the council’s existing information-hub software and sustain that service over a multi-year contract. Relevant experience with the platform or similar council information systems, reliable operational support and the capacity to maintain hosting would be commercially relevant. The stated scope does not identify specific accreditations, technical standards or staffing requirements, so the clearest evidence of fit is proven capability to deliver this defined hosting and software-support service for the London Borough of Sutton.
