Summary of the contracting process

Citizen Housing Group Ltd procured a GIS web mapping system, an information technology service for viewing, analysing and sharing interactive maps and spatial data through a web browser. The system is intended to support the organisation’s geographic information requirements through an online, cloud-based platform. Delivery covered England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The buyer is a public-law body responsible for housing and community amenities, based in Birmingham. The requirement was a single service covering the organisation’s GIS web mapping platform rather than separate geographic or functional lots. It is relevant to suppliers providing hosted GIS, web mapping, spatial-data visualisation and associated information technology services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to NEC Software Solutions UK Limited. The award is active and the contract is active. The contract value is £70,000. It was signed on 15 August 2026, and the award was recorded on 3 September 2026. The procedure was a limited award without prior publication of a call for competition, using a G-Cloud 14 framework call-off under the cloud software lot for SIS Desktop and SIS Web Map. The buyer cited continuity with the existing GIS solution, avoiding migration, parallel operation, implementation and training costs. One bid was received. Price was the stated award criterion. The procurement included a possible 12-month extension if required. The contracting process used a single lot.

This award demonstrates established demand from Citizen Housing Group Ltd for a cloud-based GIS web mapping service supporting interactive maps and spatial data. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide a dependable browser-based platform, maintain existing GIS functionality and support users across a geographically broad housing operation. Relevant capability includes spatial-data management, web map publication, map analysis, cloud hosting and ongoing ICT support. Suppliers should be able to manage continuity with an incumbent system and minimise disruption, migration effort, parallel running and user retraining. Experience delivering comparable GIS services to public-law or housing organisations would strengthen credibility. The buying route also indicates that suppliers on suitable public-sector cloud frameworks, able to provide compliant call-off arrangements, are well placed.
