Summary of the contracting process

Perth & Kinross Council has completed the procurement process for the "PKC13316 Countryside Access Management System (CAMS) licences, support & maintenance" contract, which falls under the General public services category. The location for this procurement process is the UK’s region of Perth (UKM77). The procurement commenced a limited method, aimed at awarding the contract directly without prior publication, recognising that the system had been used by the Council for a long time and the licences, support, and maintenance were exclusively available via the awarded supplier, Idox Software Ltd. The contract value stands at GBP 12,453.47 and was signed on 8th April 2025.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in software licensing, support, and maintenance services, especially those that cater to niche public service systems like CAMS. The procurement method favours providers with proprietary solutions due to technical constraints, thus offering an edge to businesses with unique, non-interchangeable services. Consequently, large-scale enterprises such as Idox Software Ltd, which can securely deliver ongoing support and adaptability for municipal technology infrastructures, are particularly well-positioned to compete for such contracts.
