Summary of the contracting process

Homes England is currently engaged in a procurement process for an Employee Benefits Platform, classified under IT services, focusing on consulting, software development, and support. This selective procurement follows a restricted procedure and forms a call-off from the CCS RM6273 framework. The substantial contract, valued at £1,000,000 GBP and awarded to Reward Gateway, aims to provide various employee benefits such as reward schemes and discounted memberships. This contract was sealed on 30th May 2025. Additionally, Homes England has initiated an active tender for Housing Market Intelligence Data, split into four lots, covering diverse data themes from housing market characteristics to commercial data insights. The tender, using an open procedure, concludes on the 3rd of February 2025, with subsequent awards anticipated soon after.

The Employee Benefits Platform contract presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services and employee benefits management. Companies with expertise in creating integrated platforms offering employee discounts, reward schemes, and more would find this opportunity particularly suited to their capabilities. Similarly, the Housing Market Intelligence Data tender offers lucrative prospects for firms adept in data analytics, real estate market insights, and data-led decision-making tools. Companies able to provide sophisticated market intelligence datasets could thrive by meeting the bidding criteria, especially as the tender allows for bidding on individual or multiple lots, effectively doubling the strategic entry points for firms involved in data collection and interpretation within the housing sector across various UK regions.
