Summary of the contracting process

The Community Housing Group Ltd intends to obtain an asset management system to support its operations. The procurement concerns database and operating software, classified under CPV 48600000, with the intention that a system will be implemented if the procurement proceeds. The planned delivery area covers England, including the regions from the North East and North West through Yorkshire and the Humber, the East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, the South East and the South West. This is a technology procurement rather than a construction or property maintenance contract. It may be relevant to suppliers providing asset management platforms, database software or related systems capable of supporting a housing organisation’s asset management requirements.

This process is at the planning stage: the buyer has announced its intention to procure, but has not invited tenders. The buyer plans pre-market engagement to gather information about asset management systems. It expects the resulting contract, if pursued, to run from 1 April 2028 to 1 April 2031, with a possible extension or renewal to 1 April 2034. The buyer has not set out an expected procurement procedure or method in this process. Suppliers wishing to contribute to the market exercise must request and complete the pre-market engagement questionnaire, returning it to procurement@communityhousing.co.uk by 1pm on 24 September 2026. The procurement is planned as a single lot and is marked as suitable for SMEs.

The market exercise is intended for businesses that can explain how an asset management system could be implemented for The Community Housing Group Ltd. Relevant suppliers are likely to include providers of asset management software, database and operating software, and businesses that support system implementation and integration. Firms with experience translating housing or property asset information into usable software solutions should be well placed to contribute useful market intelligence. The buyer is seeking information before deciding whether to proceed, so suppliers can use this stage to explain their system capabilities, implementation approach and suitability for a housing organisation. The planned contract is multi-year, with a potential further extension, which may suit providers able to support an enduring system rather than a short-term software supply.
