Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process initiated by East Renfrewshire Council, located at Eastwood HQ, Eastwood Park, Giffnock, aimed to acquire a Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup Service subscription licence for their Education M365 Tenancy. This procurement falls under the industry category of General Public Services and was conducted using a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The process was executed via a direct bid call off through the Scottish Government Software Value Added Reseller framework agreement. The procurement stage reached completion with the contract now active. The award was issued to Computacenter, with a contract value of £154,980, signed on 1st August 2025, covering the UKM83 region.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in cloud service solutions and software reselling, especially those with established operations within frameworks or direct procurement agreements. Organisations seeking to leverage government framework agreements can find growth opportunities by positioning themselves strategically for similar direct bidding processes. Although Computacenter, a large-scale enterprise, secured the contract due to the specific procurement method employed, small and medium enterprises can still benefit by aligning with larger suppliers or becoming part of a framework that allows such direct bid opportunities.
