Tender description

The Council intends to procure a strategic Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform to enable it to transform the customer and staff experience. The CRM platform will provide a proactive customer experience, automate processes and provide workflow, all of which will improve our efficiency and the quality of the experience we can offer to our customers and staff. The strategic platform will replace our main existing CRM and workflow tools by either bringing them together in one place or offering an alternative solution to the CRM that we currently have in place. Further information and the ITT documents are available via the OPEN Tender portal. A Prior Information Notice was published on the 17th December 2024 to inform suppliers about market engagement.

About the buyer

Northumberland County Council delivers local government services across Northumberland and buys as a local authority through its procurement team. Tender opportunities are published through Open, the council's procurement system that replaced the North East Procurement Organisation portal. Suppliers register free of charge on Open before bidding for contracts. Open also carries procurement opportunities from regional local authorities across the North East. A public contracts register lists the council's live and awarded agreements for transparency. A Supplier Incentive Programme also lets registered suppliers opt into early payment on invoices.

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 Northumberland County Council's contract awards have been in construction work, software and information systems and architectural and engineering services.
