Summary of the contracting process

Chesterfield Borough Council procured an income management system: an electronic payment services platform and gateway for processing transactions. The requirement covers the software and services needed to support electronic payments. The work is for the council in Chesterfield, with delivery in the East Midlands. It was classified as transaction-processing software. The buyer is a local authority, and the system supports the council’s income management through electronic transactions.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Access Paysuite Limited. The council used a limited call-off from the existing G-Cloud 14 framework, without publishing a prior competition notice. The award was made on a price-only basis; one bid was recorded. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026, with a recorded value of £300,000. The procurement data gives no contract start or end date, so the contract period cannot be stated. The single lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active; no cancellation of the award or termination of the contract is reported. The contract includes an option for one 12-month extension, with a maximum extension value of £300,000 excluding VAT.

This award shows demand from Chesterfield Borough Council for a joined-up income management platform and payment gateway that can handle electronic transactions. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate dependable transaction processing, secure payment handling and integration between the income management service and its payment gateway. They would also need the operational capacity to support a local authority’s electronic payment services and evidence that their platform can meet the council’s functional requirements at the scale represented by this contract. The council used its G-Cloud framework route and selected on price alone, so credible framework access and competitive pricing would be commercially relevant alongside a service that can be implemented and supported reliably.
