What the notice says
This contracting entity intends to award an extension by renewal of the existing services provided by Kainos Software Limited, the company's digital SaaS interface for planning, managing, and coordinating street and roadworks in England. This is used by the highways agency to submit road and street-work information. This provides real-time data, allowing UU to submit, update, and track permits, as well as view other planned works to improve coordination.
This interface is deeply embedded within our business operations because its platform underpins several core processes and system workflows. Over time, the organisation has configured and integrated Kainos solutions into daily activities, meaning key functions now rely on its technology
