## Summary

West Lothian Council procured renewal of its UiPath robotic process automation software licences and associated platform services. The requirement supports the continued operation, management and development of existing automated business processes across Council services. It also covers maintaining and enhancing automation introduced through the Council’s digital transformation programme, supporting service improvement, and investigating and deploying further automation and artificial-intelligence-enabled use cases. This is an intelligent automation and digital technology licensing requirement, including the underlying platform services needed to operate the solution. The work is for West Lothian Council and is delivered for Council services in Livingston and the wider West Lothian area. The procurement is classified under IT software and systems services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Softcat Plc. It used an open procedure and was run as a hybrid mini-competition through the ICT 3 Solutions framework on behalf of the Council. There was one bid, submitted electronically, and the award covered one lot for the Council’s UiPath licences and platform services. Softcat was awarded the requirement, with UiPath identified as its subcontractor for the full contract scope. The contract is active and was signed on 1 September 2026. Its value is £192,908.52. The procurement was evaluated through the competitive process under the framework route, with the available information identifying the requirement, supplier and delivery arrangement rather than publishing a separate weighting of quality or price criteria.

This opportunity indicates established demand from West Lothian Council for enterprise robotic process automation rather than a new, standalone software deployment. A credible future supplier would need strong UiPath capability, including licence provision, platform administration, operational support, development of existing automated processes and investigation of new automation or AI-enabled use cases. Experience of working across multiple public-sector services and supporting digital transformation would be relevant, as would the capacity to maintain a live automation estate while delivering service improvements. The award also shows that the Council used a recognised digital technology framework and that delivery can involve a technology reseller or prime contractor working with UiPath. Suppliers should therefore be able to operate through the relevant framework route or partner effectively with an eligible prime.
