Summary of the contracting process

ACIS GROUP LIMITED procured a housing management software service: a cloud-based, integrated Housing Management System (HMS), including its provision and implementation. The system is intended to manage and track social housing tenancies and properties, while helping the landlord meet regulatory compliance requirements. The work is for ACIS GROUP LIMITED, a registered not-for-profit charity and social landlord, and is to be delivered in the East Midlands. The service falls within facilities management software and software suite provision (CPV 48420000). The requirement includes access to housing management functionality and a small number of licences for the Engagements (Active) module from Rubixx Support Planning, provided at no additional charge under the contract. The opportunity is relevant to suppliers of housing, property and tenancy management platforms with implementation capability.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award under the PfH Social Housing Emerging Disruptors (SHED) 4 Framework Agreement, using a framework call-off procedure. The tender deadline was 18 December 2025 at 12:00 UTC. The contract was awarded on 7 September 2026 to RUBIXX SOLUTIONS LTD, with an awarded value of £979,378.10 including VAT. The contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 6 September 2031. The procurement was classified as a services requirement and was marked as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active and covers the complete housing management SaaS requirement, including implementation, tenancy and property management, regulatory compliance functions and the associated free Engagements (Active) module licences.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates an established requirement for an integrated SaaS housing management platform within a social landlord environment. A credible future competitor would need a proven product for managing property records and tenancies, tracking activity across those areas, and supporting compliance with regulations relevant to social housing. It would also need the capacity to implement and integrate the system, provide reliable ongoing software services, and support users over a substantial contract lifecycle. Experience serving housing associations, registered social landlords or other not-for-profit housing providers would help demonstrate sector understanding. The buyer identified the opportunity as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller specialist technology providers with sufficient delivery and support capacity may be well placed to compete when comparable requirements return.
