## Summary

The recent public procurement process undertaken by Historic England involves the acquisition of Umbraco CMS licences, specifically for e-commerce and audience engagement functionalities. This direct procurement, categorised under services, concluded with the award date on 23rd March 2026. The procurement stage has reached completion as of now, with the contract period commencing from 1st April 2026 and set to end on 30th May 2027. The buying organisation, Historic England, is located in Swindon, United Kingdom. This procurement falls under the Information Technology industry category, reflecting the specialised nature of the software services procured, with a total contract value amounting to £19,450 excluding VAT.

This tender provides noteworthy business growth opportunities, particularly for technology firms and software providers specialising in CMS solutions. Since Umbraco is the sole supplier due to their proprietary software, businesses with expert knowledge in Umbraco systems or comparable CMS platforms might consider strategic partnerships or seek sub-contracting opportunities to leverage potential engagements in future procurements. Firms that operate within the realm of IT services and digital solutions would be well-suited to explore collaborations that enhance offerings akin to the functionalities procured by Historic England, thereby expanding their market reach and technological footprint within UK public sector contracts.

## Notice

We wish to extend the functionality of Umbraco CMS which we use for our website, which require licences: * Umbraco Commerce (for e-commerce functionality) * Umbraco Engage (for audience engagement) Umbraco are the providers of Umbraco CMS and therefore the sole providers of the associated licences.
