ECC is undertaking this Preliminary market engagement notice (PME) to engage with potential suppliers to understand market capability and available solutions to help develop the Authority's requirements and inform the procurement strategy. ECC is looking to understand more about tools that can provide the following outcomes: • Help manage and simplify the complexities of our transformation, guiding robust decision-making around investment priorities. • Deliver actionable insights for Operations, Products, Cyber, and Functional Services teams, underpinned by measurable Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that track the business maturity, resilience, user outcomes, and service performance. • Enable the enterprise architecture to clearly demonstrate value, inform and justify decisions to enhance services, reduce organisational risk, and improve the experience for users. • Integrate seamlessly with ECC's existing digital platforms and services across multiple tenancies, handle large volumes of data, and provide outputs that are accessible and useful for officers at all levels within the council. • Offer a maturity model that has proven effective in other local government authorities, to support ECC throughout this significant transformation. • Assess and map the digital and data assets across the Essex region. • Support the consolidation and rationalisation of the digital applications and contracts to achieve greater efficiency. • Provide visibility into known and unknown areas, with the ability to prioritise and rank risks, thereby strengthening decision-making. In summary, ECC require a mature, proven tool that will not only enable it to govern and improve its transformation journey, but also drive business value, mitigate risks, and deliver measurable outcomes for teams and communities. ECC is in its earliest stages of generating requirements and therefore for any future potential procurement opportunity for an Enterprise Architecture Transformation Tool, it is anticipated that requirements, scope and timelines will be refined/amended following PME. Therefore, there is no commitment or guarantee that procurement activity will go ahead. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planning - **CPV codes:** 48451000, 72212451 - **Delivery regions:** UKH - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Contract Period:** 31/08/2026 to 01/09/2028 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F026058-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-03-23T09:13:56.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-20T13:23:09.328Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-0670f5
