Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham is procuring an electoral management system. The requirement covers software and information systems for managing voter registration, absent voting and elections. This is a goods procurement focused on the supply of an operational electoral administration platform rather than standalone consultancy or general IT services. The buying organisation is the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, with delivery and use in London. The requirement is a single system covering the authority’s stated electoral management activities. Suppliers specialising in electoral registration and election administration software, public-sector case-management platforms or related information systems are the most directly relevant, particularly those able to support the full set of functions within one managed solution.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. One lot was awarded to Idox Software Ltd. The award value is £103,200 gross, while the active contract value is £103,442 gross. The award was made on 31 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 31 July 2026. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029, with an extension option available up to 31 July 2030; the contract records a one-year extension option, while the lot allows further periods up to an aggregate of two years. The tender closed on 12 May 2026 at noon, with enquiries closing on 5 May 2026. Evaluation was based on 60% price and 40% quality or technical merit, including 10% social value.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham for integrated electoral administration software covering voter registration, absent voting and elections. A competitor would need a mature product that supports these functions reliably in a local-authority setting, together with the implementation, support and operational capacity needed to run a live electoral management service. The selected supplier, Idox Software Ltd, is recorded as a large organisation, indicating that scale and delivery capability may be important when this buyer next assesses the requirement. Suppliers should also be able to compete through an open, below-threshold route and present a strong technical and quality case, including a credible approach to social value, while remaining competitive on price.
