## Summary

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council commissioned a Low Income Family Tracker dashboard to help improve financial resilience across the council area. This is an IT service focused on a digital dashboard for tracking low-income families; the stated purpose is to support the council’s work on household financial resilience. Delivery is in Bradford, within the council area. The requirement is relevant to suppliers developing or providing data dashboards and related software or IT services for local authorities, particularly where the solution supports analysis of household or financial circumstances. The procurement concerns a defined dashboard service rather than general IT support or a broad council-wide technology programme.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Policy in Practice Ltd through a direct award. The award was made on 15 July 2026, with a value of £132,000. The awarded contract period runs from 20 May 2026 to 19 October 2028. The tender submission deadline was 1 May 2026. The published procurement information identifies one dashboard requirement and does not describe separate lots. The stated evaluation basis and detailed participation requirements are not part of the available process information; the method was direct award rather than an open competition. The selected supplier is Policy in Practice Ltd.

For suppliers preparing to compete for a comparable requirement from Bradford Council, the award shows demand for a family-tracking dashboard intended to support financial resilience work. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to deliver a functioning dashboard suited to local-authority use and to work with information about low-income households in a way that supports council analysis and decision-making. Relevant experience in public-sector data products, dashboard design and software delivery would help establish fit with the requirement. The procurement was directed to a large supplier, and the published suitability information indicates it was not considered suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. Suppliers should therefore assess whether they have the capacity and relevant delivery credentials to meet a council-scale digital service requirement.
