Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Haringey procured an Optimix software licence as a service for its housing delivery programme. The requirement supports the delivery of new affordable housing stock by enabling rigorous cost control and integrating individual project budgets in real time with financial models. The associated service is classified as information technology requirements review services. Delivery covers England, including London and the English regions. The procurement is for the council’s housing delivery and financial management needs rather than construction works or the direct supply of housing materials. Businesses should therefore have a focus on specialist software licensing, implementation or related information technology services, particularly where their products support live budget integration and financial oversight across housing development projects.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One lot was awarded to Beacon Partnership LLP. The contract was signed on 29 July 2026 and has a value of £27,959 excluding VAT, or £33,550.80 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2028. The recorded procurement category is services. The award is active and the contract is active. The published information identifies the requirement as an Optimix software licence and records the supplier selected, but does not set out a competitive evaluation basis. This was a direct award rather than an open tender, so the process demonstrates a specific software and service purchase by Haringey rather than a competed market exercise.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the requirement indicates demand from Haringey for specialist financial and project-cost management software supporting affordable housing delivery. Credible competitors for a future requirement of this type would need a relevant Optimix licensing or equivalent software capability, together with experience integrating project budgets into finance models in real time. They would also need to understand cost control across housing development programmes and be able to provide associated information technology requirements or implementation support. The existing award shows that a relatively small specialist supplier can meet this council’s requirement through a direct, below-threshold route. Firms with a focused housing, construction-cost, finance-systems or public-sector technology offering may therefore find this buyer and requirement relevant for future market monitoring.
