## Summary

The procurement process involves Holly Lodge High School College of Science, which has contracted for the provision of ICT services. This service falls within the IT services category, primarily focusing on consulting and software development. The procurement was conducted through a limited method, specifically an award procedure without a prior call for competition, and it is currently in the Award stage. The contract, signed on 3 February 2021, has a total value of £1,311,175 and will facilitate the support, maintenance, and installation of hardware and software for the school's ICT communications and services, located in Birmingham (UKG37).

This tender represents a significant opportunity for IT service providers specialising in software development and support activities, particularly those that can offer collaborative solutions for educational institutions. Businesses that have experience in delivering integrated ICT support services, understanding the needs of public sector entities, or possessing the capacity to ensure efficient service delivery across shared platforms would be well-suited to compete for and benefit from this contract. The collaborative nature of the procurement implies a focus on skills sharing and resource optimisation, which could further enhance market prospects for qualified suppliers.

### Procurement Information

The arrangement to be entered is an arrangement that establishes and implements cooperation between contracting authorities as set out in regulation 12(7)(a) PCR 2015, with both contracting authorities' objectives being to carry out their duty by ensuring that the activities (including IT support) are provided in a manner that maximises efficiencies and improvement of service delivery. Cooperation between them will allow for a larger support resource with broader technical skills and facilitate the sharing of ideas and developments, which will go on to improve the service provided. The proposed arrangement is governed solely by public interest considerations (regulation 12(7)(b)), with standard platforms & tools being shared to enable the full depth of technical expertise to be exploited, the distribution of knowledge, resources and experiences to be utilised to deliver service improvements and transformation opportunities across shared services. This, therefore, provides a better quality of IT provisions for the school, and better delivery of their duties through being better supported by better IT systems. The activities in question are not performed by the contracting authorities on the open market, thereby meeting the test in regulation 12(7)(c).
