Summary of the contracting process

Inverclyde Council, located in Greenock, has completed a procurement process for the "Provision of Annual Support & Maintenance for SWIFT and SAP Business Objects Licences." The contract involves the provision of services in the 'General public services' industry category, specifically within the region of UKM83. Having reached the award stage, the contract, valued at £239,216.29, was signed on 5th June 2026. The procurement was conducted under a limited procedure, with no prior publication of a call for competition, due to the technical nature of the services required, which only Civica UK Limited is capable of supplying.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT support and maintenance services, particularly those with expertise in SWIFT and SAP Business Objects. Although the procurement method was limited, future similar opportunities could benefit technology firms with niche offerings or the ability to establish technical qualifications. Large-scale IT service providers or those looking to establish a foot in the public sector IT support market could find value in engaging with such tenders, either as primary contractors in future procurement rounds or as subcontractor partners to qualified suppliers like Civica UK Limited.
