Summary of the contracting process

Anchor Hanover Group procured electronic board software delivered across the United Kingdom. The requirement was for a software-as-a-service platform supporting electronic board and governance activities. The scope included Azeus Convene SaaS user licences on a subscription basis, together with Survey, Convene Web, Convene Connect, Conversations and Enterprise Search support. The procurement was classified as goods, covering miscellaneous software packages and computer systems. It was organised as a single requirement rather than a set of separately described lots. The service is intended for Anchor Hanover Group’s board-related digital working, combining licensed access to the Convene platform with associated collaboration, communication, search and support functions.

This completed below-threshold procurement resulted in an active award to Azeus UK Limited. The contract was signed on 8 June 2026 and runs from 19 June 2026 to 18 June 2027. Its value is £25,816.95 excluding VAT, or £30,980.34 including VAT. The procurement used a below-threshold route, with the method recorded as unknown. One lot was completed and awarded. The award covers the United Kingdom delivery location and the full electronic board SaaS requirement. Azeus UK Limited is the selected supplier. The contract is active, and the published outcome records a one-year service period for the subscription, software functions and support.

This outcome identifies a buyer with a defined requirement for board-management SaaS rather than general-purpose software. Suppliers competing for comparable work would need to provide a secure, subscription-based electronic board platform with user licensing and practical support across web access, surveys, conversations, enterprise search and connected collaboration tools. Credibility would come from demonstrating that these functions operate as one service, can support board-level working across a UK organisation, and can be maintained throughout the service term. The award to an SME shows that a specialist software provider can satisfy this type of public-sector requirement without being a large general technology contractor. Relevant competitors should therefore focus on governance software capability, implementation support and dependable SaaS service delivery.
