## Summary

Ordnance Survey Limited bought a social media management platform: a software service for managing activity across social media channels. The procurement title describes it as a social media aggregator, and the item classification also identifies it as a sales or marketing software package (CPV 48481000). The contract is associated with delivery in the Bournemouth area. This is a technology purchase by Ordnance Survey, rather than a contract for creating social media content or providing a general marketing campaign.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Hootsuite Inc. under a below-threshold limited competition. There was one lot, and the published outcome records an active award and an active contract. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026 and runs from 10 September 2026 to 9 September 2027. Its value is £37,200 excluding VAT and £44,640 including VAT. The award record does not give a separate award date or set out evaluation criteria. The procurement was for goods, and the contract is for a social media management platform.

This award shows Ordnance Survey purchases software for managing social media, at a scale suited to a defined, single-platform contract rather than a major technology programme. A credible competitor when this requirement returns would need to provide a dependable social media management platform that supports the buyer’s organisational channels and day-to-day publishing and management needs. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate relevant product capability, reliable service and the capacity to support an enterprise customer. The route used was limited competition below the threshold, so experience responding to a focused competition of this kind would also be relevant. The award to a specialist platform supplier indicates that an established product offering, rather than bespoke campaign delivery, is central to this requirement.
