## Summary

South Ribble Borough Council procured a waste management software licence and associated software service, described as an industry-specific software package (CPV 48100000). The requirement is for Whitespace, a waste management software product, to support the council’s waste management operations. The procurement is categorised as a service and is delivered for the council in South Ribble, with the delivery postcode in the Leyland area of England. The council is the buying organisation. The requirement is relevant to software vendors, specialist waste-management technology providers, and businesses that supply or support configurable operational software for local authorities. It may also suit smaller businesses: the procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although it was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This procurement has been awarded and is complete. South Ribble Borough Council made a direct award to Bramble Hub Limited under the RM6259 Vertical Application Solutions framework, using a call-off from that framework. The award date was 30 June 2026. The awarded value is £121,000. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029. The tender submission deadline was 29 May 2026 at 12:00. The selected supplier is Bramble Hub Limited, an SME. The procurement used a selective method through the framework route. The award is active. The requirement was evaluated and awarded through the framework’s direct-award process for the specified waste management software service.

This procurement demonstrates established local-authority demand for specialist waste management software delivered through a public-sector framework. Businesses best placed for a future requirement of this kind would be software providers with a proven waste-management product, the ability to supply licences and support council operations, and experience of working with public bodies. Framework appointment or access to an appropriate framework route would be commercially important, since this buyer used a framework call-off and a direct award rather than a standalone open competition. The opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist technology business could be credible if it can show a reliable product, public-sector readiness, implementation capability and support arrangements for a council environment.
