About

Bradford Metropolitan District Council awarded a contract to NEC Software Solutions UK Ltd for a 5-year term to continue providing the existing Revenues and Benefits system and migrate it to a cloud-hosted model.

The contract, valued at AUD 1,497,761, was awarded using Regulation 32 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (negotiated procedure without prior publication) due to the protection of exclusive rights (Regulation 32(2)(b)(iii)) and absence of competition for technical reasons (Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii)).

Northgate owns the IPR to the software and does not allow third-party access to source code, making support and maintenance by another provider impossible without a cost-prohibitive overhaul.

The contract includes migration of applications, reports, and schedules from an unsupported environment to the current supported version, regular unlimited refresh/clone for testing, and specialist support during year-end processes including rollbacks and out-of-hours support.
