The process involved a selective procurement method with a tender period ending on 12th July 2022. The awarded contract, valued at £60,000 GBP, was given to Granicus-Firmstep Limited. The contract period starts on 1st September 2022 and extends till 31st August 2025. This tender presents opportunities for businesses providing software solutions tailored to enhance public engagement. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise sector (VCSE) organisations are well-suited to compete. Companies offering innovative and user-friendly digital platforms for public consultation can benefit from engaging with the Sheffield City Council in their endeavour to improve community engagement. ## Notice Sheffield City Council is looking to appoint a provider of a software solution that allows us to actively consult with Sheffield's citizens. As a Local Authority we have a statutory duty to consult with members of the public on certain decisions, and whilst that engagement and consultation cannot rely solely on digital methods, a high-quality, accessible, and user-friendly digital engagement platform which facilitates our wider ambitions to be a listening and responsive organisation is required. This is where you as a supplier come in with your solution to support our ambition to be an organisation that works with local communities to better the city. The public want more options for online engagement, which is more flexible, succinct, and usable for their lives and priorities in 2022 and for the future; and the public now expect a wider range of engagement approaches rather than solely online surveys (although this function is still essential.) As the fourth largest city in the UK, we should be setting the standard for community engagement, and this underpins our ambition. Your proposed solution should also factor in it being a corporate solution for the whole Council, and having one platform that suits the needs of the whole organisation is the best use of resource but also allows for oversight of all the digital engagement we're undertaking as an organisation meaning we're less likely to ask the same people the same questions and we make our data and insight work smarter than it is. The procured platform will also be used for staff engagement, with an aim to increase the numbers of staff who engage. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/56f87e7f-0782-40cd-99bf-58b7b5cf74a5 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 Nov 2022 | | Submission deadline | 12 Jul 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 4 Aug 2022 | | Contract period | 31 Aug 2022 - 31 Aug 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £60,000 | | 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 | EU SUPPLY LIMITED | | Additional buyers | SHEFFIELD CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | SHEFFIELD | | Post town | Sheffield | | Postcode | S1 2HH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE3 South Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE32 Sheffield | | Local authority | Sheffield | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Sheffield Central | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | GRANICUS-FIRMSTEP | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems ### Codes - 48900000 - Miscellaneous software package and computer systems ## Release History - 1 Nov 2022 at 09:31 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/56f87e7f-0782-40cd-99bf-58b7b5cf74a5 - 31 Oct 2022 at 22:47 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/56f87e7f-0782-40cd-99bf-58b7b5cf74a5 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/56f87e7f-0782-40cd-99bf-58b7b5cf74a5 1st November 2022 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=49622&B=UK Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/104130 User / Company ## Notice URLs - https://www.sheffield.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
