Tender description
Cornwall Council is conducting a soft market assessment to gain an understanding of the potential options for a comprehensive E-tendering and Contract Management system. This is to fulfil the compliance requirements of the Procurement Act 2023, enhance our current e-tendering functionality and introduce central oversight of contract management. This would need to include management of social value, performance reporting and full integration with the Central Digital Platform (CDP) for automated data sharing. With a provision of service desk support for buyers and suppliers. It is intended that the responses supplied will enable the Council to develop a business proposal. Any such proposal would be subject to the development and approval of a business case, and, as such, this exercise implies no commercial commitment, suppliers will not be assessed or evaluated, and no contract will result from completion of this document. This is not a formal tender document. Please use the reference DN778857 E-tendering and Contract Management System - Request for Information on the https://procontract.due-north.com/ portal for further information and completion of associated MS Word document.

About the buyer
Cornwall Council is a local authority with a central Commercial Services team that handles procurement and contract management. Every tender opportunity is advertised on Supplying the South West, the council's ProContract portal, whatever the contract value. Higher-value opportunities also appear on the Central Digital Platform, where suppliers must register under the Procurement Act 2023. Contracts Finder is no longer used for the council's notices. A commercial pipeline sets out anticipated outsourcing by directorate over the next three to five years. School and social care transport contracts are let through a separate Passenger Transport Services portal.
UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).
Over the past 5 years, most of Cornwall Council's contract awards have been in health and social work, education and training and software and information systems.
