UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Ireland Housing Executive is procuring the renewal of Autodesk software licences, together with maintenance and support for its existing Autodesk implementation. This is a software licensing and IT support requirement, including associated software programming and consultancy services. The supplier will support the Housing Executive’s Autodesk environment for activity delivered in the United Kingdom. The requirement is for services rather than goods or construction works. It is relevant to Autodesk licensing providers, authorised resellers and IT service businesses able to supply Autodesk products and provide ongoing technical maintenance and support. The Housing Executive is the public-sector buyer, based in Belfast, and the procurement covers a single requirement rather than separate service packages.

The process reached tender: the Housing Executive invited offers through a selective competitive flexible procedure. Enquiries were due by 10 August 2026 at 15:00, and tenders were due by 17 August 2026 at 15:00. Offers had to be submitted electronically through the eTendersNI portal, in English. The estimated value is £300,000 excluding VAT, or £360,000 including VAT. The contract is planned to run from 19 October 2026 to 18 October 2029, with an extension option for any periods up to 24 months, potentially allowing delivery until 18 October 2031. Evaluation is based entirely on cost, weighted at 100%. The buyer expected to complete the award process by 30 September 2026 at 23:59.

This opportunity suits businesses that are authorised Autodesk resellers and can combine software licence renewal with maintenance and technical support. Suppliers should be able to support an established Autodesk implementation rather than deliver a new, standalone software platform. Relevant capability includes managing Autodesk licence entitlements, supplying authorised subscriptions or licences, resolving software-related issues and providing continuing support to the Housing Executive. IT service providers with Autodesk product knowledge, software consultancy experience and the operational capacity to maintain public-sector customer support arrangements are well placed to compete. The requirement may also suit specialist Autodesk partners that can provide both commercial licensing expertise and reliable technical service throughout the initial contract and any agreed extensions.
