Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council procured a data compliance and assurance analytics software solution to manage, monitor and report on Electrical Installation Condition Reporting (EICR) compliance. The requirement combines database software with data analysis services, supporting the council’s management of electrical safety compliance information. It is a technology and data services requirement delivered for Newcastle City Council in Newcastle upon Tyne. The work is relevant to suppliers providing compliance-management platforms, reporting systems, data analytics, or software configured for property, housing or electrical safety assurance. The solution is intended to give the council a practical way to organise compliance data, monitor performance and produce assurance reporting for its EICR obligations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold tender process, with one completed lot. The contract was awarded to The Compliance Workbook Ltd, and the contract is active. It was signed on 31 August 2026. The contract runs from 8 September 2026 to 7 September 2027, with one 12-month extension option taking it to 7 September 2028. Its value is £68,000 excluding VAT and £81,600 including VAT. The procurement is classified as services and covers database software and data analysis services. The selected supplier is an SME. The published outcome identifies the successful supplier and the contract terms for the single lot.

This award shows that Newcastle City Council buys a focused software-and-analytics capability for EICR compliance rather than a general IT system. Suppliers competing when this requirement next returns would need a credible platform for storing and managing compliance records, analysing data, monitoring reporting obligations and presenting assurance information clearly to council users. Relevant experience would include electrical safety compliance, housing or property compliance data, audit and assurance reporting, and implementation of database-led workflows. A strong competitor would also need to demonstrate that its software can support recurring monitoring and reliable management information over a sustained service period. The award to an SME indicates that specialist suppliers with a focused compliance product can meet the requirement at this scale.
