## Summary

The Devon County Council, based in Exeter, United Kingdom, has recently awarded a contract for the CP2331-23 Virtual Wallet project to Public Consulting Group UK Ltd. The procurement stage was completed, with a contract value of £310,000 in the services category. The tender had a minimum value of £300,000 and key dates include the end of the tender period on 28th March 2023 and the contract period from 17th May 2023 to 16th May 2025.

This contract with Devon County Council presents opportunities for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) in the software and information systems industry. Businesses providing innovative solutions in software packages would be well-suited to compete for this virtual wallet project, which aims to improve access to direct payments for disabled children and potentially expand to adult social care services in the future.
