Description

Cambridgeshire County Council (The Council) has worked jointly with another local authority to deliver a Trading Standards service since 2017 and a decision has been made to take the service back in-house. Therefore, the Council is looking to procure a commercially available, "off the shelf" Trading Standards system that that can be configured to meet the current operational requirements of the Council while also being capable of supporting future service needs. This system will enable the Trading Standards team to effectively manage its statutory duties, improve service delivery, and adapt to evolving regulatory and technological environment.
