UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gloucester City Homes is procuring a modern, cloud-based finance management system. The system is intended to support the organisation’s current and future operational, regulatory, financial and strategic requirements. This is financial analysis and accounting software, covering the core needs of a finance management platform rather than a standalone consultancy or short-term software licence. The service will be delivered in the United Kingdom for Gloucester City Homes, a public authority based in Gloucester. The requirement is classified as goods because the main purchase is the software system, although suppliers should consider the associated implementation and ongoing support needed to provide a usable, sustainable cloud-based finance solution.

The procurement has reached tender: Gloucester City Homes invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The enquiry deadline was 13 October 2026 at 12:00, and the offer deadline was 19 October 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submission was allowed. The single lot has an estimated value of £600,000 excluding VAT, or £720,000 including VAT. The contract is scheduled to run from 23 November 2026 to 22 November 2031, with renewal options extending the maximum period to 22 November 2035; the stated renewal arrangement is two plus two years for excellent performance. Evaluation is weighted 73% to quality and 27% to price. The requirement is suitable for SMEs.

This opportunity suits finance software suppliers able to provide a modern, cloud-based finance management system for a public-sector housing organisation. The key capability is delivering a platform that can support operational workflows alongside regulatory, financial and strategic requirements, with sufficient flexibility for both current and future needs. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate that their system meets the stated specification and requirements, and that it can operate reliably over a long-term service relationship. It is relevant to established software providers, implementation partners and specialist finance technology businesses with suitable delivery capacity, product expertise and experience supporting complex organisational finance functions. The weighting gives quality a substantially greater influence than price, favouring strong functional and service proposals.
