## Summary

Bristol City Council procured a cloud-based electoral management system, described as ElectionsPro. This is a software service for managing electoral activity, rather than a purchase of general-purpose software or hardware. The named requirement is for the system itself; the procurement data does not describe additional implementation or support tasks. Delivery is associated with Bristol City Council’s address at City Hall, College Green, Bristol. The listed delivery locations also cover the United Kingdom and several wider territories and regions, including Europe, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. The requirement sits within software and information systems, with the main procurement category recorded as services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to FCS Software. The award was made on 1 September 2026, with the contract running from 21 October 2026 to 20 October 2028. The awarded contract value is £76,750. The tender’s estimated value was also £76,750. The stated submission deadline was 1 August 2026. The procurement method is described as “Other”, with no further method detail. It is presented as a single requirement, with no lot structure stated. No eligibility requirements or evaluation criteria are set out in the available process details, so the basis on which bids were compared cannot be summarised beyond the recorded award to the selected supplier.

This award shows that Bristol City Council buys a cloud-based electoral management system as a defined software service, at a modest contract scale, and that a specialist supplier can secure the work. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need a functioning cloud system designed for electoral management, with the capacity to support the council’s operational use across the locations identified for delivery. Experience supplying electoral software would be directly relevant; the award data does not establish particular technical standards, accreditations, staffing levels or implementation obligations, so these should not be assumed as buyer requirements. The successful supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that the work was delivered by a smaller business, although this does not establish that the procurement was reserved for SMEs.
