UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Believe Housing Limited, a housing organisation based in Seaham, procured an employee voice and listening platform. The service is intended to support colleague engagement, employee surveys and ongoing listening, rather than the supply of physical goods or construction works. It is classified as an information technology service and is delivered for Believe Housing in the United Kingdom. The requirement covers a single service package, bringing together the platform and the associated capability needed to collect and use employee feedback. This is relevant to providers of employee engagement software, staff survey platforms, workforce listening tools and related analytics services that support organisational decision-making through structured colleague feedback.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Believe Housing used a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to WorkBuzz Analytics Limited on 19 August 2026. The award value is £43,500 excluding VAT, or £52,200 including VAT. The contract period is 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028, with an option to renew once for 12 months, allowing the contract to run until 31 August 2029. Four bids were received and four reached the final stage, including three from SMEs. The award is active, and the planned contract signature date was 31 August 2026. Evaluation details are not published.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from a housing organisation for a hosted or otherwise deliverable employee engagement, survey and listening platform, with information technology services supporting the solution. A credible future competitor would need a functioning platform for gathering colleague views, running surveys and maintaining employee listening activity, together with the analytics and service capability to turn responses into useful organisational insight. The competition attracted four final-stage bids, three from SMEs, indicating that specialist smaller providers can compete through this route. Relevant suppliers are likely to be employee experience technology firms, workforce survey specialists and engagement analytics providers able to support a housing-sector client with a focused service package.
