## Summary

Epping Forest District Council has procured a finance system incorporating Integra’s financial management solution, supplied through Softcat. The requirement is for financial management and accounting software services, delivered for the Council in Epping, Essex. The contract is a call-off from the Government Commercial Agency’s back-office software framework. This is a council finance-system requirement rather than a general software or IT support contract: the stated scope centres on the finance system and Integra financial management solution.

The procurement is complete and the award is active. Softcat PLC was selected through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 15 September 2026, for £596,052.06. The stated contract period runs from 7 October 2026 to 31 March 2039. The description says the initial term ends on 31 March 2030, with two optional one-year extensions to 31 March 2032 and up to seven further one-year extensions for legacy data, to 31 March 2039. The tender submission deadline was 31 July 2026. The requirement was identified as suitable for SMEs. No specific evaluation criteria are stated in the procurement details.

This award shows demand from Epping Forest District Council for a finance system based on Integra’s financial management solution, procured through an established public-sector software framework. A credible competitor for this requirement would need to supply or implement a comparable council finance platform and demonstrate that it can support financial management and accounting needs, including legacy-data requirements over a long service horizon. The selected supplier was a large IT supplier, indicating that the delivery model can involve an established provider; however, the requirement is marked as suitable for SMEs, so smaller businesses may be relevant where they can provide the necessary software, implementation capability and sustained support, directly or through a framework route.
