UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Centre for Process Innovation Limited purchased a subscription to the Framer software-as-a-service platform. Framer provides web page editing software, supporting the creation and editing of web pages. The contract is categorised as a service, with the work delivered in the United Kingdom. The named supplier, Framer, is based in Amsterdam. This requirement concerns access to the Framer platform rather than a broader website design or development commission; the procurement description identifies the purchase as a SaaS platform. The buyer is the Centre for Process Innovation Limited, based at Wilton Centre in Redcar. The platform purchase may be relevant to suppliers providing web page editing software or comparable hosted publishing tools, rather than businesses focused solely on bespoke web development or unrelated digital services.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Framer. The buyer used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, and the process was divided into one lot. The contract was signed on 24 June 2026 and runs from 25 June 2026 to 24 June 2027. Its value is £29,500 excluding VAT and £35,400 including VAT. The award is active, as is the contract. The procurement data does not set out an evaluation basis or eligibility requirements; the route recorded was a direct purchase without competition, rather than a competitive assessment. This outcome shows the buyer selected the Framer platform for its requirement, but does not identify a comparative scoring exercise or additional award criteria.

For suppliers considering similar requirements from the Centre for Process Innovation, this purchase indicates demand for a hosted web page editing platform rather than a one-off development project. A credible competitor would need to provide a mature SaaS product that enables users to create and edit web pages, with a service model capable of meeting the buyer’s organisational needs. Framer, recorded as a large supplier, won through a direct award below threshold without competition; this suggests that a future competitor should be able to explain clearly how its platform meets the buyer’s specific requirement and offer a proportionate, straightforward route to supply. The procurement does not identify required certifications, technical standards or specialist experience, so the clearest evidence of fit is the ability to provide comparable web editing software as a hosted service.
