What the paper says
Document roll-up
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Nothing is executed for Kielderside Growth Agency. The 6 Oct 2026 notice names BG-Demo as intended winner of the Enterprise tender, subject to standstill. Price exists only in proposals: £125k a year in the 14 Jul 2026 proposal.
Executed: none of the eight documents is executed, so no price, term, billing or service level is contracted. The 6 Oct 2026 notice of intention to award states contracted annual recurring revenue is £0.
Open items:
- The 6 Oct 2026 notice from Sarah Dodds ranks BG-Demo highest overall of four bids, subject to an eight working day standstill, and states no price, term or start date.
- The final tender response of 23 Jun 2026 proposes Enterprise for 150 users on the EU cluster at one hundred and twenty-five thousand pounds a year, with a £30k one-off implementation and no discount.
- The final proposal of 14 Jul 2026 from Tom Ashdown states £125k a year and a first-year total of £155k including implementation.
- The draft proposal v1 of 9 Jul 2026 carries the same figures and is superseded by the 14 Jul 2026 version.
Contradictions: the 23 Jun 2026 tender response fixes 150 users on the EU cluster, while the 9 Jul 2026 draft proposal leaves user numbers open. The draft security questionnaire v1 of 9 Jun 2026 treats EU or US residency as an unsettled priced add-on, against the EU cluster in the tender response.
Contradictions, security: the final questionnaire of 10 Apr 2026 sets out the nightly refresh and Enterprise freshness credits. The later draft v1 of 9 Jun 2026 leaves encryption, access, penetration testing, incidents and certifications open, and no later version is on file.
Commitments: there are no live obligations, because nothing is executed. The proposals refer to Enterprise service levels and credits for availability and freshness without percentages or response times, deferring the wording to an order form.
Gaps: the documents do not show the closing date of the standstill, any challenge, confirmation of award or an order form. Connectors and their go-live days remain unconfirmed. The tender notice of 12 May 2026 sets a twelve-month initial term with two optional one-year extensions, so any extension is not guaranteed.
