Summary of the contracting process

North Lincolnshire Council procured Canva Enterprise licences, a software and information-systems purchase. The requirement was for the provision of Canva Enterprise licences. The council, based in Scunthorpe, is the buying organisation. The procurement was arranged as a single lot. The contract concerns licences rather than software development or a wider digital services programme; no further scope or operational purpose is described. The supplier selected was Canva UK Operations Limited. The procurement category is goods. The available details identify the product and buyer but do not describe the number or type of licences, intended users, deployment arrangements or delivery locations, so the requirement is best matched by suppliers of Canva Enterprise licences or closely equivalent enterprise licensing arrangements.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. It was conducted below the public procurement threshold; the specific procedure and procurement method are not described. There was one lot, and Canva UK Operations Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 6 May 2025 and runs from 6 May 2025 to 5 May 2028. Its stated value is £36,000 including gross value. No separate award date or award value is recorded. The procurement data does not set out evaluation criteria, eligibility requirements or the basis for selecting the supplier. The process therefore records the outcome and contract term, but provides no detail on how tenders were compared or what participation conditions applied.

This award shows that North Lincolnshire Council has bought Canva Enterprise licences through a below-threshold procurement, with a three-year active contract. For suppliers considering similar future requirements from this buyer, the clearest evidence of relevance is the ability to supply Canva Enterprise licensing. The scale evidenced is a single-lot purchase rather than a multi-lot programme. The recorded procurement does not identify requirements for implementation, support, training, integration, technical credentials or particular supplier capacity, so those should not be assumed to have determined the award. A competitor would be most credible by demonstrating that it can meet the council’s enterprise licensing requirement and explain the scope and delivery of the licences it supplies.
