Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council procured renewal of licences for a property management system used to manage its corporate estate. This is a software licensing requirement within information technology services, rather than a property maintenance or building works contract. The work relates to the council’s corporate estate in Dudley. The procurement was arranged through the Government Commercial Agency’s Vertical Application Solutions framework, RM6259, and covered a single requirement. The system supports the council’s estate management; the licence renewal is the purchased element. Civica UK Ltd was selected to supply the requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Civica UK Ltd. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026 and has an awarded value of £72,469. The process used a direct award through the Government Commercial Agency’s Vertical Application Solutions framework (RM6259), without a prior call for competition. The requirement was treated as one lot, with price as the stated award criterion. One bid was recorded. The lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are marked active; the published outcome identifies Civica UK Ltd as the selected supplier. No contract period or award date is recorded, so the signing date is the only stated contract date.

For suppliers seeking comparable work from Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, this award demonstrates demand for renewal of corporate-estate property management software licences through a public-sector framework route. A credible competitor would need to provide the relevant property management system licensing and demonstrate that its software supports management of a local authority’s corporate estate. The recorded evaluation basis was price, so competitive pricing would matter alongside the ability to supply the required licences. The selected supplier, Civica UK Ltd, is a large technology provider, indicating that the buyer has previously chosen an established supplier for this requirement. Businesses with relevant property-management software and access to the applicable framework route would be best placed to compete when this specific licensing requirement returns to market. The procurement covered one requirement rather than multiple lots.
