## Summary

The procurement process for the supply of "Industry Standard Design and Modelling Software" has been concluded by Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council, a regional or local authority in the United Kingdom (UKK24 region). The tender focuses on services within the software support industry category, specifically addressing the needs for 2D and 3D drafting required by architects, engineers, and construction professionals. The contract, valued at £101,438, was signed on July 22, 2026, following an award without prior publication, attributed to its limited market competition. The supplier selected was Man and Machine Ltd, and the procurement method was a limited process due to the specific market conditions involving Autodesk licence re-procurement via the CCS G-Cloud 14 framework.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for organisations specialising in software support services, particularly those that are authorised resellers of Autodesk products. The limited competition presents an advantageous environment for suppliers capable of delivering design and modelling software that ensures compatibility and continuity with existing infrastructure. Large-scale businesses adept in high-precision software provision could find success by positioning themselves strategically within this niche market segment, leveraging existing capabilities to meet the specific demands of local government bodies.
