Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council commissioned hosting and maintenance for its Leeds Adult Learning Course Finder website. The service is intended to keep course information refreshed daily from Council data files and allow Leeds residents to access adult learning provision and use the online enrolment form to enrol on courses. This is website hosting and maintenance work, with associated website services. The service supports the Council’s adult learning programme and is delivered for residents in Leeds.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Leeds City Council awarded the single-lot contract to Waters Geospatial Ltd. The contract was signed on 9 October 2026 and runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. Its value is £8,240 excluding VAT (£9,888 including VAT). The Council used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The published procurement information does not state an evaluation basis or award date.

For a future requirement of this kind, a credible supplier would need to provide dependable website hosting and maintenance for an adult learning course-finder service. The work calls for keeping course listings current from Council data files on a daily basis, while maintaining access to the website and its online enrolment form for learners. Suppliers should be able to support residents’ access to the Council’s course provision throughout an academic year. The awarded supplier was an SME, showing that delivery was within the reach of a smaller specialist provider. This is a focused digital service requirement rather than a broad adult education delivery contract.
