KEY PUBLISHED FACTS

  • Published contact: Niki Mistry
  • Contact email: nikimistry@southend.gov.uk

Published route is closed, inactive, withdrawn or already awarded.

WHY RADAR THINKS PURA MAY FIT

Published software/IT scope is relevant; delivery scale, integrations and procurement conditions remain unproven. This is a Pura hypothesis; detailed scope, delivery capability and procurement constraints still need checking.

Confidence: MEDIUM — notice scope only

Known: the saved buyer requirement above.
Inferred: potential Pura capability match; not buyer-confirmed.

What still needs checking

  • Detailed workflows and acceptance criteria
  • Integration and security requirements
  • Direct contact permission and procurement constraints
  • Proof effort and bounded paid discovery acceptance

  2. — Radar discovered the opportunity.

HUMAN CHECK

Official source available: YES
Radar fully expanded source: YES

Key facts verified: value, deadline, contact, route, stage — according to saved evidence; check current source.

Outstanding verification

  • Detailed workflows and acceptance criteria
