Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hillingdon procured the Access Adam Housing Management system, a software package and information system for managing temporary accommodation and private rented sector (PRS) properties. The system is intended to support the council’s Housing team in managing these properties and meeting its operational requirements. The buyer is the London Borough of Hillingdon, a local authority based at the Civic Centre in Uxbridge. The services are for housing activity in Hillingdon, within London. The selected supplier is Access UK Ltd, a large UK software provider based in Loughborough. This requirement is therefore relevant to suppliers of housing management software, property management systems and related implementation or support services with experience serving local authority housing teams.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Access UK Ltd under the G-Cloud 14 framework, using a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition. The award date was 26 August 2026 and the contract was signed on that date. The contract value is £199,250. The stated contract period runs from 29 October 2024 to 28 October 2026, while the procurement description refers to a three-year period. The award was assessed on technical merit and functional fit for the Housing team. The stated criteria concerned meeting the Housing team’s needs and price, each described as 100%. One bid was recorded. The process was conducted under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and the framework agreement is RM1557.14.

This award demonstrates a defined local authority requirement for software supporting temporary accommodation and private rented sector property management. A credible competitor for comparable work would need a mature housing management platform that can handle these property types and fit the working needs of a council Housing team. Evidence of functional coverage, reliable implementation and ongoing system support would be important, alongside a clear value proposition. Suppliers should understand public-sector housing operations and be able to demonstrate that their system meets practical user requirements, rather than relying on generic property software claims. Experience of supplying through public-sector frameworks, particularly cloud technology frameworks, would also be commercially relevant because this procurement used a framework direct award route. The selected supplier’s scale indicates that capacity to support a substantial council account may matter.
