OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council procured council payment system software for use in Dundee. The requirement is classified as software-related goods and is described as procurement of council payment system software; the contract concerns software rather than physical equipment. Dundee City Council is the buying organisation. The delivery location is Dundee. The procurement relates to a single requirement, rather than separately described packages of work. The available scope is limited to the council payment system software itself, so suppliers whose business covers payment-system software are the closest fit. The awarded supplier is Access Paysuite Ltd, based in Loughborough.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Dundee City Council made a direct award to Access Paysuite Ltd through the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework, using a limited procedure without a separately published competition. The award was made on 26 June 2026, when the contract was signed. The contract value is £63,000. The procurement had one lot, and price was the stated evaluation criterion. One bid was recorded. No contract start or end dates are provided in the available process information, so the contract period cannot be stated. The award covers the council payment system software requirement as a single package.

This award confirms demand from Dundee City Council for council payment system software, at a relatively modest contract scale, and shows that the council used the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework for the purchase. A supplier seeking to compete when this specific requirement next reaches the market would need to provide payment-system software suited to a local authority, and be capable of contracting through the relevant framework route. The recorded evaluation basis was price, so a credible offer would need competitive pricing as well as a solution that meets the council’s operational needs. The selected supplier was a large company, but the process recorded only one bid; this does not establish that the requirement inherently needs a supplier of that size. The stated scope does not support assuming additional services beyond council payment-system software.
