Summary of the contracting process

Walsall Metro Borough Council has concluded the contracting process titled "WP4066 Housing Register and Homeless Systems," focused in the business transaction and personal business software industry. This procurement, located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom, aims to enhance services offered by the council to residents in need of housing support, targeting improvements in the council’s housing register and homeless systems. Initiated through a tender process, the procurement was managed as a call-off from a framework, with the award made to MRI Software Limited on 31st March 2025. The contract period spans from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028, with a total contract value of £192,912.

This tender provides growth opportunities for businesses specialising in software packages, particularly those capable of delivering robust business transaction solutions and improving efficiency in reporting system results. Ideal candidates for competing would be established, large-scale software firms capable of handling complex systems integrations for public sector clients. While small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), may find this procurement less suited to their capabilities, larger businesses can leverage their existing frameworks and technological expertise to enhance public service delivery in housing systems.
