Summary of the contracting process

Greensquareaccord Limited procured ongoing consultancy, professional services and system training for its MRI software environment. The work covers systems and technical consultancy, specialist advice, support and training delivered through advance service credits that are drawn down as requirements arise. MRI Software Limited is the appointed provider. The services support Greensquareaccord’s technology estate, including system configuration, functionality, product developments and existing integrations. Delivery covers England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. This is a services requirement for organisations experienced in supporting proprietary housing or property-management software ecosystems and their associated integrations.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to MRI Software Limited by direct award on 13 July 2026, using a single-supplier technical-reasons justification. The contract was signed on 27 July 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its value is £137,700 excluding VAT, or £165,240 including VAT. The award is above the relevant threshold. The buyer may purchase additional service credits during the contract period, subject to applicable thresholds and governance requirements. The requirement was treated as one completed lot, identified as suitable for SMEs. The direct award was based on MRI’s ownership and support of the relevant software ecosystem, specialist technical expertise, system knowledge, integration capability and intellectual property rights.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Greensquareaccord for continuing specialist support around MRI software rather than general consultancy alone. A credible future competitor would need detailed knowledge of MRI system configuration, functionality, product development and existing integrations, together with the ability to provide consultancy, professional services and user or system training. Experience maintaining business-critical technology estates and protecting continuity during changes would be important. Suppliers would also need to demonstrate integration capability and understand the implications of proprietary software, including intellectual property and access constraints. The requirement suits a specialist software partner, authorised ecosystem provider or consultancy with substantial MRI expertise and the capacity to deliver support and training across England.

CPV classifications 72220000 - Systems and technical consultancy services ParticipationParticipation Particular suitability Small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) Other informationOther information Conflicts assessment prepared/revised Yes ProcedureProcedure Procedure type Direct award Direct award justification Single supplier - technical reasons MRI Software Limited is the sole supplier capable of providing these services, as it owns and supports the wider MRI software ecosystem used by GSA. The company possesses the specialist technical expertise, system knowledge, integration capability and intellectual property rights necessary to deliver the required consultancy, professional services and training. The services are intrinsically linked to MRI's proprietary software solutions and require detailed knowledge of system configuration, functionality, ongoing product developments and existing integrations within GSA's technology estate. This expertise cannot be readily or cost-effectively replicated by a third-party provider without introducing significant risks to service delivery, system performance, programme timelines and business continuity. Consequently, MRI Software Limited is considered the only supplier capable of delivering these services to the required standard and within the required timescales, making a direct award the most appropriate procurement route. The Technology Products & Associated Services 2 (TEPAS2) Framework (RM6098) was explored as a potential procurement route for this requirement.
