## Summary

The Uttlesford District Council has completed a procurement process for a project entitled "Document Imaging Software". This procurement falls within the services industry category and is focused on replacing the existing Northgate "Iclipse" software with the "Information@Work" system. The contract, worth £232,934, was awarded following a limited procurement method, described as a negotiated procedure without prior publication. The contract commenced on 1 December 2018 and is set to extend until 31 January 2023, with strategic reviews scheduled to align with the Northgate System's renewal date.

This tender presents significant opportunities for software companies specialising in document management solutions, particularly those able to provide robust systems that integrate seamlessly with existing software infrastructures. Businesses that offer perpetual licensing and ongoing support or hosting services will find themselves well-positioned to compete. As the public sector increasingly upgrades its software systems, firms that demonstrate the capability to deliver innovative solutions and ongoing service excellence will likely benefit from such procurement opportunities.

## Notice

Replacement of de-supported Northgate "Iclipse" software with "Information@Work". System integrates with the existing Northgate system owned by the Council and operated under a perpetual licence. "Information@Work" replaces software that is being de-supported before the end of the current maintenance term. "Information@Work" will be purchased outright with a perpetual licence to operate with support and hosting for a term of 50 months in the first instance and options to extend for as long as the software remains fit for purpose. The renewal date of this software is aligned to that of the Northgate System allowing for strategic reviews at relevant intervals.
