## Summary

Middlesbrough Council has awarded a contract for the "GP216 - Booking Lab calendar booking software - annual subscription" under the industry category of services, specifically focusing on networking, internet, and intranet software development. The procurement process is complete, and the contract was signed on 8 August 2025. This direct procurement, which does not involve open competition due to being below the threshold, aims to continue using Booking Lab's software to digitise the Council's bulky waste collection bookings. The contract, lasting from 1 October 2025 to 30 September 2028, is valued at £25,625 net and is targeted primarily within the UKC12 region, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for small to medium-sized software firms that specialise in providing tailored digital solutions for local government services. Although this specific contract was awarded directly to BOOKINGLAB LIMITED, it highlights a potential market for software companies with innovative booking or scheduling solutions that can enhance local government service efficiency. Businesses that can offer cost-effective, reliable, and adaptable software platforms for municipal applications would likely be well-positioned to compete in similar public procurement opportunities in the future.

## Notice

Last year the calendar booking software produced by Booking Lab was purchased to enable the digitisation of booking the Council's bulky waste collection service. The system is working very well and no issues have been encountered. We would like to continue to use the system and purchase three years of subscription to the software. An exemption is required because it would not be cost effective to move to a new system and therefore we would like to maintain the current Booking Lab system and purchase three years of subscription by extending the current contract.
