## Summary

Derbyshire County Council is exploring the market for a population segmentation data tool. The intended service would involve software and information systems, together with related IT services such as software development, consultancy or support. The Council says it wants to use market input to shape a future service model, develop procurement documents and understand supplier capabilities. The work is associated with the East Midlands. The Council is seeking written responses from potential suppliers as part of its preliminary market engagement, with shortlisted suppliers expected to present to the Council.

This is at planning and is a market-engagement exercise, not an invitation to tender. The Council plans to use supplier feedback to inform a future procurement; no procedure for that procurement is stated. The engagement response date is 13 November 2026, after which the Council expects to shortlist suppliers for presentations. The estimated value is £70,000 excluding VAT (£84,000 including VAT). The anticipated contract period is 11 May 2027 to 10 May 2030. The procurement is arranged as one lot. No evaluation basis for the future contract is set out.

This engagement is relevant to suppliers able to provide population segmentation data tools and associated software or IT services. It is a chance for providers to explain their product capabilities, service models and delivery approach while the Council is shaping its requirements. Suppliers should be prepared to provide a written response and, if shortlisted, present their offer to the Council. The Council is seeking market insight to understand available capabilities and help secure value for money. No specific accreditation, technical standard, staffing requirement or minimum experience is stated, so suppliers can focus their response on the strengths and practical capabilities they consider relevant.
