## Summary

Dundee City Council is planning to procure construction consultant resource and project management software for use across its capital and housing programmes in Dundee. The system will support the planning, allocation and monitoring of architectural, engineering and specialist consultancy resources. It is intended to complement existing corporate and client-side systems, including Civica, while providing resource planning, capacity forecasting, workload visibility, timesheet reporting and management information. The procurement is for goods, specifically software and information systems, with an associated construction project management function. The council aims to improve service efficiency, forward planning, evidence-based resource decisions, programme delivery assurance, capacity utilisation and value for money. This will suit suppliers offering industry-specific software for managing consultancy resources and construction project workloads within a local authority environment.

This process is at the planning and market-engagement stage, rather than an invitation to tender. Dundee City Council is using a Prior Information Notice and questionnaire to understand available solutions, refine its requirements and decide the most appropriate procurement route. Suppliers wishing to be considered for product demonstrations must return the completed questionnaire by 12 noon on 25 September 2026. Demonstrations are currently anticipated for early October 2026, although these dates are indicative. A subsequent notice is expected on 19 October 2026. The council may limit the number of demonstrations. Participation is voluntary, gives no advantage or disadvantage in any later procurement, and does not commit the council to proceed. The exercise will not evaluate, select or exclude suppliers for a future procurement.

The engagement is relevant to software providers specialising in construction, consultancy-resource and project-management systems, particularly those able to demonstrate practical use in public-sector capital and housing programmes. Strong candidates will be able to show resource allocation, capacity forecasting, workload visibility, timesheet reporting and management-information functionality, alongside clear implementation approaches and delivery models. The council is also looking for solutions that can complement existing corporate and client-side systems, including Civica, so integration and information-sharing capability will be important. Suppliers should prepare a concise response to the questionnaire and be ready to demonstrate how their system supports forward planning, evidence-based staffing decisions, programme assurance, capacity utilisation and value-for-money reporting. The immediate activity is preparation for market engagement, not a bid for the future contract.

## Notice

The objective is to improve service efficiency, strengthen forward planning, support evidence-based resource decisions and provide greater assurance over programme delivery, capacity utilisation and value for money.
