Summary of the contracting process

City Building (Glasgow) LLP procured IT technical support services for its IT team, including Oracle licences and support. The requirement was a renewal of the existing technical support arrangement, covering the organisation’s Oracle technology needs rather than a new software implementation or general IT service. The work is delivered in Glasgow. The procurement is categorised as services and concerns Oracle technical support. City Building is a subsidiary of two public bodies and also acts as a central purchasing body. This is a focused requirement for suppliers providing Oracle-related support and licensing services to a public-sector organisation, with the service centred on maintaining existing support arrangements.

The procurement has been completed and awarded to Oracle Corporation UK Ltd. under one lot. It used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition: City Building made a direct award by calling off the Government Commercial Agency Oracle Premier Support Framework PS1050/RM6285. The contract was signed on 5 March 2026 and has a value of £92,045.70. The contract is active. One bid was recorded, and the award followed the direct-award framework route rather than a multi-supplier competition. The requirement was evaluated through the framework’s established route to market. The contract covers renewal of the requested Oracle technical support services and associated licences for City Building’s IT team.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates established public-sector demand for Oracle Premier Support, licence renewals and technical support in Glasgow. A credible future competitor would need direct capability in supporting Oracle environments, managing support and licensing renewals, and delivering continuity for an existing IT service rather than proposing a wholly new system. Experience of public-sector purchasing routes and the Government Commercial Agency Oracle Premier Support Framework would be important, since this requirement was fulfilled through a direct framework award. The single recorded bid and award to Oracle Corporation UK Ltd also show that the buyer used a specialist supplier route, favouring providers with strong Oracle-specific capability and the capacity to maintain an incumbent support arrangement.
