## Summary

The procurement process described involves the Aberdeenshire Council, which aimed to award a contract for upgrading their current leisure management system to a cloud-hosted environment. This contract, titled "Award of Leisure Management System," falls under the industry category of software-related services (CPV code 72260000) and is specifically related to upgrading industry-specific software packages. The process took place in the region of Aberdeenshire, UK, under a limited procurement method, meaning it was conducted without prior publication of a call for competition. The decision to award without a call was due to the technical necessity to maintain service continuity. The procurement was in the award stage as of January 26, 2026, and the contract, valued at £380,511, was signed on January 8, 2026, with Gladstone MRM Limited as the supplier.

This tender creates opportunities for technology and software service businesses, particularly those specialised in cloud solutions and management systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) familiar with the intricacies of hosting and managing large-scale leisure systems could find numerous prospects in similar procurement processes, especially when dealing with public sector upgrades. Given the specific technical requirements and the necessity to ensure continuity, suppliers with expertise in seamless technology transitions stand well-positioned to compete effectively in such bids.
