UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London & Quadrant Housing Trust procured DocuSign licences to provide a secure electronic-signature service. The software supports the Trust’s procurement, contract management, sales and wider approval processes, helping it execute and manage documents electronically. This is a software and information-systems requirement, with delivery in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is London & Quadrant Housing Trust, a housing provider based in London. The requirement concerns the continued use of DocuSign as an established digital signing and approval platform, rather than software development, consultancy or construction work. It will suit suppliers providing enterprise electronic-signature, document workflow or related business-process software to housing organisations and other public-sector bodies.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Docusign International EMEA Limited. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, because the Trust considered there was insufficient time and resource to complete the required review and competitive procurement before the existing arrangement expired. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and runs from 31 July 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its value is £54,783.24 excluding VAT, or £65,740.89 including VAT. This was a single requirement, recorded as one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active, so the outcome is an established one-year software licensing arrangement rather than an opportunity to submit a tender.

This award demonstrates demand from a major housing provider for secure electronic signatures embedded across procurement, contract management, sales and approval workflows. Competitors seeking comparable work would need to provide dependable enterprise software that can support legally and operationally important document-signing processes across several business functions, with sufficient capacity for an organisation of this scale. Credibility would come from a mature electronic-signature or document-workflow platform, strong information-security controls, reliable service operation and the ability to support implementation, user access and ongoing licence management. Suppliers should also understand public-sector and housing-sector approval processes, contract administration and procurement requirements, and be able to deliver and support software for UK-based users.
