## Summary

Bristol City Council has successfully completed a tender for a Software Support Contract, valued at £37,786, as part of the services industry. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 16 April 2018. The contract itself commenced on 24 April 2018 and will extend until 24 April 2019. The delivery location for this procurement is in the South West region of the United Kingdom.

This contract presents a valuable opportunity for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage in the software services sector. Businesses that specialise in software solutions, system support, or IT services would be particularly well-suited to compete in future tenders of a similar nature. The involvement of larger firms, such as Pitney Bowes Software Europe, indicates an active market where innovative smaller providers could manage competitive bids to win future contracts.
