Summary of the contracting process

Stockport Homes Limited intends to procure website design, development, hosting, maintenance and support services for multiple websites. The requirement covers IT, software development, internet and support services, including the ongoing technical support and hosting needed to operate the websites. Services are expected to be supplied through an appropriate framework agreement. Delivery is across the United Kingdom, with the buying organisation based in Stockport. This is a public-sector digital services requirement for suppliers able to design and build websites, host them, maintain their performance and provide continuing support. The work is categorised as services and is intended to support Stockport Homes Limited’s portfolio of websites rather than a single identified site.

This procurement is at the planning stage and is currently a preliminary market engagement exercise, not an invitation to tender. Stockport Homes Limited expects to use a framework agreement, with the future contract anticipated to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030 and potentially extend to 31 March 2032 through renewal. The stated value is approximately £105,000 per annum. The buyer plans to gather expressions of interest by 31 August 2026, with the full scope to be provided after expressions of interest are received. Dates and location arrangements for engagement are expected to depend on the number of expressions received. A subsequent notice is anticipated on 1 September 2026.

The requirement is suited to website agencies, digital development companies, managed hosting providers and IT support businesses that can combine these capabilities for multiple websites. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate website design and development expertise alongside reliable hosting, maintenance and responsive technical support. Businesses with experience managing ongoing website services, rather than only delivering one-off builds, are likely to be well placed when the procurement reaches the market. The buyer has indicated that the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Firms considering participation should use the engagement phase to understand the eventual scope and prepare evidence of relevant digital delivery, hosting and support capability.
