Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council procured a software hosting and processing module for its SRMCS system. This is specialist software provision, covering the hosting and processing module rather than a wider software implementation or general IT service. The requirement was delivered in Kilmarnock, East Ayrshire. The procurement was made through the Crown Commercial Service’s G-Cloud 14 framework, specifically its cloud-services lot. The council was the buyer, with W.D.M Limited selected as the supplier. The stated requirement is focused on an existing software system and its hosted processing capability, making it most relevant to providers able to supply and support comparable software hosting and processing services for local government.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. East Ayrshire Council made a direct award to W.D.M Limited through the G-Cloud 14 framework, without a separate call for competition. One lot was awarded to one supplier; the recorded bid statistics show one bid. The contract was signed on 31 March 2026 and is valued at £30,071. The data gives no award date or contract start and end dates, so the signed date is the only dated contract outcome available. Evaluation criteria are not stated. The process concerns a single software-hosting and processing requirement, rather than a multi-lot procurement. W.D.M Limited is the named awardee.

For suppliers considering similar future East Ayrshire Council requirements, this award indicates demand for hosting and processing capability tied to the council’s SRMCS software. A credible competitor would need to provide the relevant software module as a dependable hosted service and demonstrate that it can process the system’s requirements effectively. Familiarity with public-sector cloud procurement would also matter: the council used the G-Cloud 14 framework and made a direct award through it. This was a focused software requirement, so suppliers with an established, relevant product and the ability to deliver it through a government cloud framework are better aligned than general IT providers without comparable hosting and processing capability. The award shows a single supplier was selected for this requirement.
