Summary of the contracting process

The Development Bank of Wales bought a cloud-based resource booking platform for its workspace, car parking and meeting rooms. The requirement combines booking software with the associated platform provision and support, classified as IT services. The service is for the bank’s operational booking needs. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom; no more specific delivery site is identified in the procurement information. There was one lot covering the platform requirement. The platform is intended to let users book workspace, parking and meeting rooms through a single cloud-based service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Hubstar Systems Ltd. The bank used a selective process, making the award under a framework and below the relevant threshold. The contract was signed on 13 October 2026 and runs from 18 October 2026 to 17 October 2027, with an optional 12-month extension to a maximum end date of 17 October 2028. The contract value is £33,870.10 excluding VAT (£40,644.12 including VAT). The award is active and relates to the single lot. The procurement data does not set out the evaluation criteria or the basis on which the successful supplier was selected.

For suppliers competing for this buyer’s future resource-booking requirement, a credible offer would need to provide a cloud-based platform that brings workspace, car parking and meeting-room reservations together. The outcome shows demand for a contracted IT service rather than a one-off purchase of equipment, with delivery through a framework route. Relevant strengths would include dependable booking software, the ability to support users and maintain the platform throughout the service period, and experience serving an organisation with several types of bookable facilities. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate that their platform covers all three booking needs as an integrated service and can operate at the scale required by the Development Bank of Wales. Hubstar Systems Ltd was selected for this requirement.
