## Summary

The procurement process involves the West Dorset District Council seeking support for the IT Service Transition as part of an IT Service Convergence project. The tender for this contract, valued at £27,500, is classified under software support services and the contract period runs from 1st March 2018 to 1st February 2019. The procurement was executed through an exemption from internal rules, signalling a streamlined process following earlier unsuccessful attempts. The completion status of this procurement was reflected in the award notice published on 11th April 2018, indicating that the tender period ended on 1st February 2018.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in software support services to enhance their growth and market presence.

Suitable candidates may include both established firms and larger entities adept in navigating similar public procurement processes and addressing the needs of local authorities.

## Notice

As part of the IT Service Convergence project a new structure has been put in place.

Unfortunately, earlier procurement processes were unsuccessful in procuring this support hence this procurement.
