## Summary

Chelmsford City Council procured a building control software system for case management. The requirement is a software package and information system supporting the Council’s building control service and its associated case-management activity. The buying organisation is Chelmsford City Council, a local public authority based in Chelmsford. The awarded supplier is based in Cheltenham, while the system is intended to support the Council’s operations in Chelmsford. This is a technology supply requirement rather than construction or building works. The opportunity is relevant to software providers with products designed for building control, regulatory case management, workflow administration and related information-management needs in local government settings.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 14 August 2026 to Resolution Data Management Limited. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, and comprised one completed lot. The award is £150,000 excluding VAT, or £180,000 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028, with an optional two-year extension allowing the arrangement to continue until 30 September 2030. The award is active and the supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 27 August 2026. The published outcome identifies software package and information systems as the procurement category; the recorded evaluation basis is the direct-award route rather than a competitive scoring exercise.

This award demonstrates a defined local-authority requirement for a specialist building control case-management system, with a substantial multi-year service relationship and an extension option. Competitors preparing for a future requirement from Chelmsford City Council would need a credible product for managing building control cases and the related information, workflows and records. Relevant suppliers include software businesses experienced in public-sector or local-government deployments, particularly those able to demonstrate reliable case management for regulatory services. A strong proposition would combine an established software platform with implementation, configuration, user support, maintenance and service continuity capabilities appropriate to a Council environment. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large systems integrator.
