UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Plymouth City Council procured configuration and support for Eclipse finance software modules covering children’s services, adult social care residential payments and adult social care non-residential payments. The requirement brings together finance functions for these service areas within the Eclipse system. It is an information technology services contract, specifically software-related services. The council is the buyer, and the work is associated with Plymouth, England. The published scope identifies the three finance modules but does not describe particular implementation tasks or technical specifications. The procurement relates to a single lot and was awarded to one supplier, DELT Shared Services Limited, a Plymouth-based small and medium-sized enterprise.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Plymouth City Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The council signed the contract on 20 October 2026, with a contract period running from 20 October to 30 November 2026. The contract value is £102,164.25 excluding VAT (£122,597.10 including VAT). DELT Shared Services Limited was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The available details identify the contract outcome and procurement route but do not set out evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements.

For suppliers tracking demand in local-government finance systems, this award shows Plymouth City Council’s requirement for Eclipse finance modules spanning children’s services and adult social care payments. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate relevant software capability across these finance processes, including the ability to support residential and non-residential payment functions. Experience delivering or maintaining finance-system modules for public-sector service operations would be pertinent. The selected supplier is a small and medium-sized enterprise, showing that this requirement was awarded to a supplier of that scale. The procurement used a below-threshold direct award without competition, so this outcome also indicates the route used for this purchase; it does not establish that a future requirement would follow the same route.
