## Summary

Wirral Borough Council bought a cloud migration partner service for work in England. The requirement covers IT services, including consulting, software development, internet services and support, with the stated focus on helping the council migrate to cloud-based systems. It is a professional technology services requirement rather than a goods supply or construction project. The buying organisation is Wirral Borough Council, based in Birkenhead. The selected service provider is expected to provide the specialist advice and delivery capability needed to support the council’s cloud migration activity and associated ICT requirements. The procurement falls within the broad IT services category, including consulting, software development, internet and support services.

The procurement has been awarded. Wirral Borough Council made a direct award to Phoenix Software Ltd through the KCS Framework Y23038 ICT Managed Services & Consultancy, Lot 2. The award date was 8 August 2026, with a contract value of £408,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 10 August 2026 to 9 August 2027. The tender submission deadline was 8 August 2026 at 12:00. The procurement method was direct award, rather than an open competition. Phoenix Software Ltd is the single named awardee. The contracting process is complete and the award is active.

This award is evidence of demand from Wirral Borough Council for cloud migration support delivered through an ICT managed services and consultancy route. Suppliers targeting similar future work would need credible cloud migration capability, practical IT consultancy expertise and the capacity to provide software, internet and support services alongside migration delivery. Experience of working with public sector buyers and operating through the KCS Framework’s ICT Managed Services & Consultancy route would be commercially relevant. The procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs, so competitors would need the scale, delivery resources and organisational capacity expected for a council-wide technology service rather than a small standalone consultancy assignment.
