UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cell Therapy Catapult Limited procured renewal of its Adobe Sign electronic-signature software licence and support services. The platform is used across the organisation to approve contracts and other corporate documents, and is described as business-critical, secure and compliant. The requirement combines continued access to electronic-signature software with supplier support. It falls within software supply and document-management services, including business transaction software (CPV 72268000). The buying organisation is Cell Therapy Catapult Limited, based in London. The procurement record does not identify a separate delivery site; the software serves the organisation’s approval processes across its operations.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Adobe Systems Software Ireland Limited. Cell Therapy Catapult used a direct award below the threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 25 September 2026 and runs from 25 September 2026 to 24 September 2027, a 12-month term. Its value is £17,400 excluding VAT (£20,880 including VAT). The process was organised as one lot, covering the software licence renewal and support. No separate award date is stated; the contract was signed on 25 September 2026. The published procurement information does not set out evaluation criteria, so no basis for comparing competing offers can be reported.

For a supplier seeking to compete when this requirement returns to market, credibility would depend on providing a dependable electronic-signature platform and ongoing licence support. The product must support secure, compliant approval of contracts and other corporate documents, and be suitable for organisation-wide use in a business-critical process. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate how their service maintains reliable access and supports the buyer’s established approval workflows. The award went to the software provider through a direct, non-competitive route, so the outcome demonstrates continued demand for an existing product and its support rather than a competitive selection between alternative platforms. The requirement is a focused software-and-support renewal for Cell Therapy Catapult Limited, rather than a broader technology or document-management programme.
