The Authority is looking to procure a library management system for SPINE consortium as the current contract expires in June 2026. The SPINE consortium consists of Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Peterborough and Suffolk Councils. We are hoping to standardise the 'extra' services we have added to the current contract and challenge suppliers to provide a efficient and suitable system delivering and adding value to the library services across the Authorities during changing times and demands on our services. The contract term will be a maximum of 72 months, within an initial term of 48 months and an option to extend for an additional 24 months.
