Summary of the contracting process

South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority commissioned a private-sector housing stock condition database for South Yorkshire. The supplier is to work with the Authority and members of the South Yorkshire Private Rented Sector Reference Group to create a shared evidence base. The database will support future policy and practice, inform systems development and guide resource allocation for work to improve standards in the private housing sector. This is a services contract combining software and information systems with IT consulting, software development, internet and support services. Delivery covers South Yorkshire, for the Authority and its stakeholder group.

The procurement has reached award stage following a single-lot open procedure. SUSTENIC LIMITED was selected on 17 August 2026 for £174,400 excluding VAT (£209,280 including VAT). The award remains pending the standstill period, which ends on 26 August 2026; the scheduled signature date is 27 August 2026. The contract is planned to run from 1 September 2026 to 30 April 2027, with a possible supplementary licence agreement extending the end date by up to five years. Evaluation weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%. Eleven bids were received, nine reached the final stage and seven final-stage bidders were SMEs. Economic and technical selection requirements applied.

This award demonstrates a defined public-sector need for a specialist database supporting private rented housing standards across South Yorkshire. Relevant competitors would need credible capability in designing and delivering software or information systems, alongside IT consulting, development, internet and support services. They would also need to understand how housing stock condition data can be assembled into an evidence base for policy, operational practice, systems and public-resource decisions, and how to work with a public authority and stakeholder reference group. The requirement was assessed primarily on quality rather than price, so a strong future proposition would need to show a robust, usable database and effective stakeholder delivery, backed by the technical and economic capacity required for a regional housing-data project.
