Summary of the contracting process

The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) procured a cloud-based software-as-a-service project management office (PMO) system, with implementation, onboarding and support. It is intended to support governance and management across projects, programmes and portfolios, including reporting, resource management, workflow automation and benefits realisation. This is business software and associated IT implementation and support services, rather than a purchase of physical equipment or construction work. The buyer is AHDB, based in Coventry. The requirement was structured as a single lot and delivered in the UK.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to TMI Systems Limited. AHDB ran a further competition among suppliers on the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 cloud software framework, using the framework’s call-off procedure; three bids were recorded. The contract was signed on 14 September 2026 and is active. Its recorded value is £80,756. Evaluation weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%, with the supplier selected as the most economically advantageous tender. The source also marks the single lot as cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active; these status entries conflict, so the outcome is not fully consistent.

For suppliers of PMO platforms and related implementation services, this award shows demand from AHDB for an integrated SaaS solution spanning project, programme and portfolio governance, reporting, resource management, workflow automation and benefits tracking. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate that its platform can support those functions together, and provide practical implementation, onboarding and ongoing support. The evaluation placed greater emphasis on quality than price, so evidence of functional fit and dependable delivery would matter alongside a competitive commercial offer. The route used was a further competition under a public-sector cloud software framework; suppliers seeking similar work with this buyer would need relevant framework access and the capability to deliver the full software-and-services package.
