Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council procured a cloud-based Lane Rental Management System for managing street and road works under its lane rental scheme. The system is to integrate with Street Manager and support permit management, inspections and reporting, together with ongoing support and maintenance. The work is delivered for the council in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. It is a software and information-systems requirement, rather than a purchase of physical equipment or construction work. The contract combines the software platform with the integration and operational services needed to use it for permits, inspections and reporting.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Symology Ltd. The council signed the contract on 9 October 2026; its recorded value is £125,900. The contract is active. The procurement used a limited call-off procedure under the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework, following a compliant competitive process to establish that framework; there was no separate competition for this call-off. The requirement was handled as one lot, and price was the stated award criterion. The lot is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are active. The contract record does not state a contract period, so no end date or duration is reported.

This award shows that Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council buys specialist cloud software for administering lane rental and street works, including integration with Street Manager, permits, inspections and reporting. Suppliers seeking to compete for a future requirement of this kind would need a mature hosted management system and the technical capability to integrate it with Street Manager, as well as features supporting the council’s permit and inspection processes and useful operational reporting. Reliable support and maintenance are also part of the requirement, so a credible provider needs to sustain the system after implementation, not just supply software. The council selected an SME through a framework call-off, with price as the stated award criterion. A supplier with a suitable framework route and a competitive, deliverable service offer would therefore be better placed to compete.
