## Summary

Chelmsford City Council procured the Uniform local authority case management system, a software package for council services, for use in Chelmsford. The system covers development management, building control, environmental health, anti-social behaviour, private sector housing, licensing and gazetteer management, including the sub-modules for each area. This is a multi-service software requirement, bringing together case management across regulatory, planning, housing and community safety functions. The procurement category is goods; the main deliverable is the software system rather than a separately described implementation or support service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Idox Software Ltd. The award date was 1 October 2026, and the contract period runs from 31 October 2026 to 30 October 2029. The awarded value is £320,000. The stated procurement value was also £320,000. The council used a selective procedure to make a call-off from the Vertical Application Solutions framework (RM6259). The tender deadline was 1 October 2026 at 12:00. This is a single contract covering the Uniform system; no separate lots are described. The procurement records suitability for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind, the award demonstrates demand from Chelmsford City Council for a broad local-authority case management platform spanning planning, building control, environmental health, housing, licensing, community safety and gazetteer management. A credible competitor would need a product able to support these distinct council functions and their associated sub-modules within one system. The buying route was a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to be positioned to supply through an applicable framework. The stated suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises indicates that those organisation types were considered suitable to participate; it does not establish particular technical, accreditation or capacity thresholds.
