Summary of the contracting process

The Guinness Partnership Limited commissioned an asset systems review to assess its current systems architecture and the available market, then develop a longer-term technology strategy and roadmap for asset management. This is a specialist technology and business analysis consultancy service, covering strategic information-systems review and planning, information-technology requirements review, and systems quality-assurance assessment. The work is associated with asset-management technology rather than the supply of software or hardware. Delivery covers London and the North West of England, with The Guinness Partnership as the buying organisation. The requirement was structured as a single lot and is classified as services. It is relevant to consultancies that can assess complex asset-management systems and translate findings into a practical technology strategy and roadmap.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline was 29 May 2026 at 2pm, with enquiries closing on 25 May 2026 at 2pm. The estimated value was £60,000 excluding VAT (£72,000 including VAT). Altair Consultancy and Advisory Services Ltd was awarded the single lot. The contract was signed on 26 June 2026, with a contract period from 29 June to 25 September 2026. The contract value is £42,150 excluding VAT (£50,580 including VAT). Electronic submission was allowed. The award basis was set out in the Request for Proposal document, so the published record does not identify individual scoring weightings or criteria. The procurement and contract are both recorded as active or complete at their respective stages.

This award demonstrates demand from The Guinness Partnership for external expertise linking asset management, enterprise technology and business analysis. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement would need to review existing systems architecture, understand operational technology requirements, assess system quality and interpret the current market offering. They would also need to turn technical and market evidence into a coherent longer-term technology strategy and implementation roadmap, rather than provide a narrow software product or isolated technical review. Relevant businesses are likely to be consultancies with experience in housing or other asset-intensive organisations, systems strategy, requirements analysis and technology assurance. The requirement is suitable for an SME consultancy: the selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that specialist firms can compete for this type of work.
