## Summary

The procurement process led by Fife Council pertains to a completed contract titled "CFM0424 - Catering Allergen System," focusing on general public services in the UK region of Glenrothes (UKM72). This tender, designed to procure a catering management system enabling menu, nutritional, and allergen information access, was conducted using a limited procurement method under the CCS Vertical Application Solutions Framework. Given the contract award without prior call for competition due to Civica UK Limited's singular capability, the procurement methodology aligns with technical criteria under the Public Sector (Scotland) Act 32514L0024.

This tender provides a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in digital catering management solutions, particularly those offering bespoke systems capable of integrating nutritional and allergen data for public service operations. Small and medium enterprises, especially those with innovative technical offerings, might find future opportunities in similar procurements through frameworks like the CCS Vertical Application Solutions, even though this particular opportunity was limited to Civica UK Limited.
