## Summary

Renfrewshire Council, located in Paisley, has awarded a contract for the provision of an externally hosted website and intranet to GOSS Interactive Ltd. This contract falls under the industry category of General Public Services and relates to goods procurement. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract signed on 30th September 2024.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like GOSS Interactive Ltd, which have the technical expertise to fulfil such niche requirements, are well-suited to compete in similar future procurement opportunities.
