Summary of the contracting process

mhs homes group bought access to and use of Dynamic Resource Scheduler (DRS), supplied by One Advanced. The requirement covers scheduling and productivity software, including a review of the organisation’s use of DRS as part of its technology strategy and a health check of the system. The procurement is for a single requirement, delivered for mhs homes group in Chatham, Kent. It is categorised as goods because the primary purchase is a software package rather than a standalone consultancy service. The arrangement is relevant to software suppliers, enterprise technology providers and organisations able to support workforce or resource scheduling, productivity management and technology health checks for a housing group or similar public-service organisation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One Advanced was selected as the supplier for the single requirement. The award is active and the contract is active. The award date was 31 March 2026, when the contract was signed. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2028. Its value is £66,108 excluding VAT, or £79,330 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated and awarded through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The contract concerns the use and review of Dynamic Resource Scheduler, including a health check, and covers scheduling and productivity software for mhs homes group.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for resource-scheduling and productivity software within mhs homes group, with demand extending beyond software access to a structured review of how the system supports its technology strategy. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would be established providers of scheduling, workforce-management or productivity platforms, with the technical capability to assess an existing deployment and recommend improvements. Credible competitors would need experience of system health checks, technology-strategy alignment, implementation support and ongoing account management. The incumbent is a large technology supplier, so competing organisations would need to show comparable delivery capacity and a clear understanding of the operational needs of a housing group.
