## Summary

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council procured Adobe software licences under an Enterprise Term License Agreement (ETLA). The requirement is classified as software package and information systems (CPV 48000000) and is treated as a services procurement. The licences are intended to cover the council’s Adobe software needs, with delivery associated with the United Kingdom and the council’s wider stated delivery locations. The procurement was aggregated through Crown Commercial Services under the Technology Products and Associated Services 2 Framework. This is relevant to suppliers of Adobe enterprise licensing, software procurement and associated account or licensing services, particularly those able to support a local authority customer through an established public sector purchasing route.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective restricted procedure. The tender submission deadline was 31 August 2026 at noon, the award was made on 31 August 2026, and the contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 30 March 2029. The estimated procurement value was £108,939. The contract was awarded to Bytes Software Services Limited for £108,939.23. The award is active and covers the same contract period. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one award. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and it was conducted through the Adobe Enterprise Term License Agreement using the Technology Products and Associated Services 2 Framework.

This completed procurement is useful market evidence for businesses supplying Adobe enterprise licences to local authorities. A credible future competitor would need reliable access to Adobe licensing arrangements, the ability to manage an organisation-wide enterprise licence requirement, and experience serving public sector customers through framework-based procurement. The selected supplier was a large software services company, indicating that buyers may value established licensing capability, delivery assurance and the capacity to administer a multi-year council-wide arrangement. SMEs were considered suitable for the requirement, so smaller specialist resellers or licensing partners with strong Adobe knowledge, public sector references and effective contract management may also be well placed when comparable demand returns.
