Bramble Hub and our partner Integrated Skills have been awarded a contract with Northumberland County Council to deliver a shared RouteSmart and GIS solution for the North East Region RouteSmart Partnership.
The project will provide regional access to advanced mapping and route optimisation software, hosted securely and supported through a managed service. This collaborative approach will enable participating councils to improve the efficiency and coordination of essential local services.
Northumberland County Council leads the partnership, which brings together seven local authorities across the region: Durham, Northumberland, Newcastle, Sunderland, Gateshead, South Tyneside, and Hartlepool. The shared arrangement allows the councils to benefit from a consistent, cost-effective platform that supports data-driven decision-making.
Integrated Skills, Bramble Hub’s delivery partner, specialises in route optimisation and GIS technologies that help local authorities enhance operational performance and service delivery.
The contract was awarded through the Crown Commercial Service RM6259 Vertical Application Solutions framework, Lot 3 (Housing, Environment and Planning Solutions).
