Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process described involves Poplar Housing and Regeneration Community Association Limited, based in London, acting as the buying organisation for a project titled "Software Assurance," which falls under the industry category of software package and information systems. This procurement is intended for the renewal of Microsoft Software Assurance over a period of three years, focusing on on-premise licensing. The procurement stage is complete, with a direct procurement method used that fell below threshold requirements, hence executed without competition. The key contract dates are from 30th November 2025 to 30th November 2028, and the contract award was signed on 27th October 2025, with the total value amounting to £73,595.33.

This tender presents significant opportunities for software businesses, particularly those specialising in delivering software solutions and information systems. Although the contract has been awarded to Phoenix Software Limited, a large supplier based in York, businesses of similar scale with expertise in software assurance might find potential for future opportunities in similar tenders. The wide delivery scope across multiple UK regions, including UKC, UKD, UKE, and others, suggests a considerable demand for software packages, making this sector particularly vital for businesses aiming to expand in the public sector software industry.
