## Summary

The Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council has awarded a contract for the Umbraco Gold Partner for Content Management System Upgrade. The procurement stage was an open procedure, with a tender period ending on June 30, 2023. The contract period spans from July 31, 2023, to July 30, 2024, for software support services concerning Umbraco upgrades. The Council's Umbraco CMS requires upgrading to version 8 by September 2023 with a future transition to a cloud-based platform.

This opportunity would be suitable for businesses offering software support services, computer upgrade services, and IT services. The Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, as the buying organization, situated in West Midlands, United Kingdom, aims to engage with qualified suppliers in this technology-oriented procurement process. The contract requires the successful supplier to be an Umbraco Gold Partner, providing warranty support until the move to a cloud-based platform in 2024/25.

## Notice

The Council's current Umbraco 7 Content Management System (CMS) has an end-of-life date of September 2023. To maintain compliance, we need to upgrade our installation of Umbraco 7 which serves dudley.gov.uk to a minimum of the latest iteration of Umbraco 8. It is the Council's intention to move from the current on-premise software to a cloud-based Umbraco platform in 2024/25. The Council will require a level of warranty support to cover the upgrade until we move over to the cloud-based Umbraco platform. It is a requirement of the contract that the successful Supplier must be an Umbraco Gold Partner.
