## Summary

The North Yorkshire Council procured Adobe software and associated technology services through an aggregation under the Crown Commercial Service RM6098 Provision of Technology Products and Associated Services framework. The requirement is classified as industry-specific software and falls within the services category. Delivery is for the council in Yorkshire and the Humber, with the buying organisation based at County Hall in Northallerton. The procurement relates to supplying and supporting Adobe products rather than general software development or unrelated technology services. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation is not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The selected supplier is Bytes Software Services Limited, a large technology supplier based in Leatherhead.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award under the CCS RM6098 framework. The award was made to Bytes Software Services Limited on 9 March 2026 for £132,537. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029. The tender submission deadline was 31 March 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was handled as a single procurement for Adobe software and associated services, with no separate lots identified. The award is active and the contract period matches the advertised service period. The route was a framework aggregation rather than an open competition, so suppliers’ ability to participate depended on the applicable CCS framework arrangements and direct-award process.

This award indicates established public-sector demand for Adobe software and associated technology services within North Yorkshire. A credible future competitor would need to supply relevant Adobe products, understand licensing and technology-service requirements, and have the operational capacity to support a council-wide requirement over a multi-year period. Familiarity with the Crown Commercial Service RM6098 framework and its aggregation and direct-award arrangements would be important, because this purchase was made through that route rather than through an open standalone tender. The opportunity was marked as suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist supplier could be relevant if it can meet the framework, product, support and delivery requirements. Experience serving public bodies and delivering software services across Yorkshire would strengthen its position, although no specific accreditation or technical qualification is identified here.
