## Summary

The procurement process carried out by Chesterfield Borough Council has resulted in the award of a contract for Subscription Based Research Services. This contract falls under the industry category of 'Research and development services and related consultancy services' (CPV: 73000000). Chesterfield Borough Council, located in the United Kingdom, specifically at Town Hall, Rose Hill, Chesterfield (Postal Code: S40 1LP), utilised a direct award procurement method for this contract. The contract, valued at up to £136,450 excl. VAT, was procured through a call-off from the CCS Framework G-Cloud 14 and was awarded to Gartner UK Limited. The award was published on 11th July 2025, following a completion date of the contract award stage on 30th April 2025. The contract period spans from 1st May 2025 to 30th April 2027, covering various geographical locations including the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and beyond.

This award provides substantial opportunities for businesses involved in delivering research and development services, particularly those adept at providing comprehensive consultancy on subscription-based models. While the procurement method was direct, indicating limited competition, the framework used suggests that businesses with pre-existing credentials or certification to participate in the CCS Framework could find similar tender opportunities rewarding. Large-scale enterprises like Gartner UK Limited, known for delivering extensive research services, would find this category particularly beneficial, although the process suggests that smaller and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE) may require frameworks to increase their competitiveness.
