UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Halton Borough Council bought Veeam backup software and licences to protect its IT infrastructure, including core Microsoft 365 services such as email and OneDrive. This is a software supply requirement covering the tools and licensing needed to back up those systems. Delivery is in the Halton area of England. The council is the buying organisation; the selected supplier is Autodata Products Limited, a London-based small or medium-sized business. The requirement centres on business continuity and data protection for the council’s digital services, rather than general IT support or infrastructure replacement.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Autodata Products Limited. The council used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 23 September 2026 and runs from 23 September 2026 to 23 September 2029. Its value is £97,200 including gross value as recorded. There was one lot, covering the software requirement. The procurement data does not set out award scoring or evaluation criteria. The selected supplier is identified in the award, and the contract is active.

This award shows that Halton Borough Council buys specialist backup software and licences to protect its own infrastructure and Microsoft 365 services, including email and OneDrive. Suppliers aiming to compete for a similar requirement when it returns to market would need to provide suitable Veeam products and licensing, with the capability to support reliable backup of both council infrastructure and cloud-based Microsoft 365 services. Credibility would depend on demonstrating that the proposed software and licence package fits the council’s operational environment and protects the stated services. The council selected a small or medium-sized supplier through a direct award, so the requirement appears deliverable by a specialist provider rather than requiring a large-scale systems integrator.
