## Summary

Milton Keynes Council commissioned an Adults Digital Directory, a digital information system intended to support access to information about adult services, people and places. The requirement is categorised as services and concerns the delivery of software and information systems. The directory is for the council’s adult services context and is described as the Adults Digital Directory. The recorded delivery location is Wigan, although the buyer is Milton Keynes Council. The selected provider, People, Places, Lives (PPL), described the requirement as meeting the council’s specification for the directory. This is therefore relevant to suppliers delivering digital directories, service-information platforms or related software and information systems for public-sector adult services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Milton Keynes Council used a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with evaluation against the required specification. The award was made to People, Places, Lives (PPL) on 20 August 2026 for £80,050 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 30 October 2026 to 29 October 2028. The tender submission deadline was 20 August 2026 at 17:00. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. This outcome relates to one completed requirement; no separate lots or additional awards are recorded. The award status is active, and the tender status is complete.

This award indicates a defined requirement for a specialist digital directory supporting adult-service information, rather than a general software purchase. Suppliers considering similar work for Milton Keynes Council would need to provide a credible digital information system and demonstrate that it meets a detailed council specification. Relevant capability includes designing, configuring or delivering directories that organise information about services, people and places in a usable way. Experience of public-sector or adult-services information requirements would help a supplier show understanding of the operating context. The procurement route also indicates that framework access and the ability to deliver a compliant call-off response are commercially important. The requirement was considered suitable for SMEs, so specialist smaller digital suppliers may be well placed to compete when comparable work returns.
