Transition
From: The council's prior Access Group contractual arrangements for Mosaic, Synergy, Abacus and Core+ were reaching the end of available extensions in September 2026.
To: Herefordshire Council authorised the five-year direct-award contract with The Access Group for the four named systems, including hosting arrangements and an intended transition to cloud-hosted SaaS.
Known unknowns
The two council decisions establish approval, contract authority and planned SaaS hosting for four specified products. They do not prove that the contract was fully executed, that cloud cutover has completed, or that every council workload migrated. The £3.4 million is the stated five-year contract cost, not separately verified realised spend.
