Summary of the contracting process

Tai Calon Community Housing Ltd is seeking a full finance system for Tai Calon Housing Association. This is a technology services requirement covering finance software and information systems, together with associated IT consulting, software development, internet and support services. The work is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The requirement is categorised as a service rather than goods or construction works. It is intended for suppliers able to provide and support an organisation-wide finance system, including the related implementation and technical services described in the invitation to tender. The procurement is subject to Welsh devolved regulations. The buyer is Tai Calon Community Housing Ltd, based in Blaina, Wales. The tender documentation provides the detailed specification and contractual requirements for the system and its support.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, at the tender stage. Suppliers could submit offers electronically in English or Welsh. Enquiries had to be submitted by 10 August 2026 at 17:00, and offers by 17 August 2026 at 12:00. The planned award decision date was 22 September 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029, with renewal options of one year plus one further year; the maximum stated end date is 30 November 2031. The estimated value is £500,000 excluding VAT and £600,000 including VAT. A single lot is evaluated on 70% technical and quality and 30% price. The requirement is above the relevant threshold.

This opportunity suits suppliers specialising in finance systems for housing associations or comparable organisations, particularly businesses that combine finance software with implementation, technical consulting, development, internet services and ongoing support. The buyer has indicated that the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller specialist providers and mission-led organisations may be well placed to compete. Strong contenders will be able to demonstrate an integrated finance-system capability, understand the operational needs of a housing organisation, and provide dependable support alongside the software solution. Technical and quality performance carries substantially more weight than price in evaluation, making the quality of the proposed system, delivery approach and support service commercially important.
