## Summary

The Buckinghamshire Council has awarded a contract for the 'School Closures web service' project. The procurement process used a competitive dialog method, with a contract value of £25,000. The tender period ended on 8th September 2023, and the contract is valid from 16th October 2023 to 16th October 2026. The service falls under the IT services category and is located in the South East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a business opportunity for IT service providers specialising in consulting, software development, and Internet support.

Interested businesses should be prepared to engage in competitive dialogues and deliver innovative solutions to meet the council's needs.

## Notice

Our existing school closures service is no longer supported, and we are looking to replace the existing school closures service with an updated version. Allowing schools/bus services to publish closures/cancellations to inform parents of changes as quickly as possible. In addition, there is the opportunity to take this further by allowing parents to proactively receive notifications and generate more detailed reporting for the council.
