The initial requirement covers programme management and business change leadership and delivery during the Prepare and Procure phase, with provision to continue into the ERP implementation stage, subject to funding. This is consultancy and programme-change support for a council replacing its enterprise resource planning system, rather than a software supply contract. The work is for Kirklees Council in Huddersfield, with delivery in Yorkshire and the Humber. The procurement is complete and was awarded to 31ten Consulting Limited. The award was made on 25 September 2026, for £1,400,700. The planned contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 July 2029; the requirement began as an eight-month term, with an option to extend for a further 26 months, subject to funding. The initial procurement estimate was £1,500,000. Kirklees used a selective call-off from the ESPO Consultancy Services framework, under its Strategic Programmes and Projects lot. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The submission deadline was 5 August 2026 at 1pm. This award demonstrates demand from Kirklees Council for specialist consultancy capacity to support a complex ERP replacement, particularly programme management and business change leadership and delivery across preparation, procurement and implementation. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to show the ability to integrate with a council programme team, lead organisational change and deliver practical change activity alongside ERP procurement and implementation. The requirement was suitable for SMEs, and it was sourced through a consultancy framework call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be able to meet the relevant framework route as well as demonstrate focused ERP programme and business-change expertise. The potential extension into implementation indicates value in capability that can support continuity from procurement into delivery, subject to the council’s funding. ## Notice Support from specialist ERP consultants to provide additional capacity for the ERP Replacement Programme. Initially additional capacity is sought for programme management and business change leadership/delivery to support the Prepare and Procure phase, with the provision to extend this resource for the ERP implementation stage (subject to funding). The initial contract term is 8 months with the option to extend for a further 26 months up to July 2029 This is a call off from ESPO Framework 664_25 for Consultancy Services - Lot 10 - Strategic Programmes & Projects. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/702d51d2-f833-4b96-9fd8-46aa2fd8e8e8 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a framework agreement | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 6 Oct 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 25 Sep 2026 | | Contract period | 1 Oct 2026 - 31 Jul 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,500,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £1,400,700 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Kirklees Council | | Locality | HUDDERSFIELD | | Postcode area | Huddersfield | | Postcode | HD1 2NA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE44 Calderdale and Kirklees | | Local authority | Kirklees | | Electoral ward | Newsome | | Westminster constituency | Huddersfield | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | 31TEN CONSULTING LIMITED | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72000000 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ## Release History - 6 Oct 2026 at 18:08 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/702d51d2-f833-4b96-9fd8-46aa2fd8e8e8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/702d51d2-f833-4b96-9fd8-46aa2fd8e8e8 6th October 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.kirklees.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
