Softcat was selected, and the recorded competition comprised one bid. A credible competitor would need to supply software suited to pupil journaling in schools and be able to meet the council’s requirement through the relevant framework route. The available description does not establish particular product features, integrations, implementation services, accreditations or technical qualifications, so these cannot be treated as demonstrated conditions for competing.
