Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by East Ayrshire Council for a "Liquidlogic Social Work Management Information System" falls under the industry category of general public services and takes place in Kilmarnock, UKM93. The procurement stage is complete, having moved from the tender to the award stage. The direct award was made via the CCS Vertical Application Solutions RM6259: Lot 2, covering Education, Community Health, and Social Care, with the award announced on 16 December 2025. This contract, valued at £652,000, demonstrates a strategic acquisition by the council to enhance their social work management systems.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for companies in the service industry, particularly those specialising in software solutions for public sector management. Although a direct award, the procurement highlights the potential for businesses to engage through existing framework agreements, which can simplify entry for businesses with solutions already recognised under framework conditions. Larger enterprises with expertise in social work management systems, like Liquidlogic, which was the successful supplier in this instance, are well-positioned to leverage such opportunities in future procurement processes within the public sector.
