## Summary

Fife Council is planning a procurement process for a new website content management system. This initiative is categorised under general public services and seeks to replace the existing website with a modern, user-friendly, and accessible alternative. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with the tender serving as a key communication and engagement platform for Fife Council's stakeholders, including residents and visitors. The location for this opportunity is in Glenrothes, in the UKM72 region. The key dates include the planned publication of the future notice on 1st January 2026. The expected value of this tender is £140,000, and it is governed by GPA regulations. The Council aims for the website to meet WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility standards and align with UK Government Digital Service Design Principles over a three-year contract term.

This procurement represents a significant business growth opportunity for companies specialising in website development, hosting, and CMS support. Firms experienced in delivering secure, scalable websites compliant with stringent accessibility and digital service standards will find this tender particularly suited to their capabilities. Moreover, companies offering competitive value for money and expertise in content migration and ongoing CMS support will also benefit from engaging with Fife Council's internal web team. The procurement process welcomes participation from businesses that are well-versed in the latest digital service technologies and strategies, providing an excellent chance to establish a long-term relationship with a regional public authority.
