Summary of the contracting process

Oxford City Council is buying a commercial asset and property management system, together with property services functionality, to support management of its commercial assets and properties. The procurement is for an industry-specific software package, rather than construction or property maintenance works. The system is intended for the council’s use in Oxford, England. The requirement is grouped as a single contract covering the asset and property management system and related property services. Suppliers offering software for commercial property portfolios and associated property-management processes are the closest fit; the council is also seeking the property-services capability described in the requirement.

The council invited offers through an open procedure. The tender was published on 2 October 2026. Questions were due by 26 October 2026 at 17:00, and bids by 5 November 2026 at 12:00. The council expected to decide on an award by 4 January 2027. The estimated contract value is £1.8 million excluding VAT (£2.16 million including VAT). The initial contract period runs from 1 June 2027 to 31 May 2032, with an option to extend for two further periods of two years, up to 31 May 2036. There is one lot. Evaluation weights quality at 76% and price at 24%. Bids may be submitted electronically in English.

The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises. It is best suited to suppliers able to provide an industry-specific commercial asset and property management system alongside property services for a local authority. A single contract calls for a joined-up solution rather than separate lot bids, and the multi-year term favours suppliers able to support the system and services over an extended period. Quality carries substantially more evaluation weight than price, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the strength and relevance of their proposed system and service delivery. The requirement is for software and related property services; no particular accreditation, technical standard, staffing level or prior experience is stated in the published procurement information.
