## Summary

The procurement process was led by Salford City Council for the provision of an election software system. Categorised under software package and information systems, this tender aimed to ensure effective software support for electoral processes. Notably, the procurement was conducted via a limited method, awarding the contract without prior publication of a call for competition, as the process fell outside standard directive scopes. The contract, valued at £80,112, was awarded to Civica, and the agreement was signed on 11th December 2025. The main delivery region is UKD3, covering Manchester and surrounding areas, with Salford City Council acting as the buying organisation.

This tender presents significant opportunities for large software businesses specialising in election systems, particularly those experienced in dealing with regional or local authorities. The award was based on price criteria, indicating competitive pricing can be advantageous in similar future tenders. Though specific opportunities for SME involvement in this particular tender were not recorded, SMEs with innovative solutions may leverage similar initiatives, as regional authorities frequently aim to improve operational efficiency in public service delivery.

## Notice

Without effective software the Returning Officer/Electoral Registration Officer will be unable to meet their statutory obligations to deliver effective elections and electoral registration.
