Summary of the contracting process

Highland Council has completed the direct award of a contract for performance management software, as part of a call-off from the Crown Commercial Services Big Data and Analytics framework RM6195. Located in Inverness, UKM6, this procurement process centres around general public services and falls under the goods category. This contract was signed on 23 March 2026, with the procurement method classified as limited due to a direct award procedure without prior publication. The entire process underscores Highland Council's commitment to maintaining robust performance management solutions, with CACI Limited being chosen as the supplier.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses, particularly those in large-scale software provision, to align with government frameworks and support ongoing performance management needs. Though the award has already been completed, understanding such procurement procedures can open pathways for businesses in similar frameworks, encouraging growth through government partnerships. Companies specialising in data analytics and software solutions, who can navigate limited procurement methods and integrate seamlessly into existing systems, are especially well-suited to this type of contract. This highlights the importance of being prepared for direct award procedures to effectively compete in the public sector procurement market.
