Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council procured a mutual house exchange software solution for use within the city boundary of Hull. The requirement is for software supply services, covering the provision of a digital solution that supports mutual house exchanges. The council is the public-sector buyer and the service is associated with its local authority housing activity. The selected supplier is MRI Software Limited, a large software provider based in London. The requirement is therefore relevant to businesses supplying housing-sector software, mutual exchange platforms or related digital services to local authorities. It is less relevant to firms offering general consultancy, construction, property maintenance or unrelated IT services, unless they also provide software capable of supporting mutual house exchange processes.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Hull City Council made a direct award through the CCS GCloud 14 Framework, using an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The procurement was evaluated on price. MRI Software Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 28 July 2026, has a value of £52,485.00 including the stated currency of GBP, and runs for 36 months from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. The procurement comprises one lot, relating to the mutual house exchange software solution. The award was made through the framework route rather than an open competition for this requirement.

This procurement demonstrates a local authority requirement for a defined housing software capability rather than bespoke construction or operational housing services. A credible competing supplier would need to provide a mutual house exchange solution suitable for council use, with functionality aligned to the needs of residents and housing teams managing exchanges. Experience supplying software to public-sector or housing organisations would help demonstrate understanding of the operating environment, although the published requirement does not set out specific accreditations, technical standards, staffing levels or turnover thresholds. Businesses with an established housing technology product, reliable implementation and support arrangements, and experience working through public-sector framework routes would be best placed to compete if this buyer revisits the requirement.
