## Description

HCC makes extensive use of AutoCad software for the production of plans and diagrams for the Universal Services directorate\. The current contract was tendered as a three year contract ending on 04/04/2026\. HCC was advised by Autodesk that some of the original licences covered in the current contract were expiring in January 2026 and it would be prudent to co-term all the licences to end at the same time, therefore a reprocurement exercise was required\. Autodesk is also in the process of introducing new licence models which could be beneficial to HCC\. These launch after the January licence expiry date, so a short term contract was sought to enable HCC to take time to investigate whether these new licensing options are likely to deliver future savings\. Additional information: The CAD Software requirement was procured using the Kent Commercial Services Software Products and Associated Services Framework ref Y23065
