## Summary

West Sussex County Council has completed a procurement process for "Microsoft Corporate Licences," which falls under the category of software-related services. The procurement was executed through a call-off from a framework agreement, a selective method to preselect the supplier, Phoenix Software Ltd. With a contract value of £5,500,000, the tender covers a term of three years starting from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028. The delivery addresses are specified in Chichester, South East, United Kingdom (postal code PO19 1RQ). The award stage was active as of 20th March 2025, and the official notice was published on 8th September 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in software-related services to expand their market reach by engaging in large-scale projects. While the procurement was closed to new bidders due to a preselection process favouring large organisations, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) might explore potential sub-contracting opportunities with Phoenix Software Ltd. This contract serves as a precedent that businesses could leverage for future collaborations with public sector bodies like West Sussex County Council.
