Summary of the contracting process

Warrington Borough Council procured a licence for BRE data and materials, together with a sub-licence for Experian data. The arrangement supports dwelling-level housing stock modelling and an integrated database for the Council. The work is a data and research-related service rather than a physical construction project. The contract is for use by the Council in Warrington, England.

The procurement has been awarded to Building Research Establishment Limited (BRE). Warrington Borough Council used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 28 January 2026 and runs from 12 February 2026 to 11 February 2031. Its value is £40,775 excluding VAT (£48,930 including VAT). The process comprised one lot. No evaluation criteria are reported.

This award shows demand from Warrington Borough Council for dwelling-level housing stock modelling supported by an integrated database and licensed BRE and Experian data. Suppliers competing for a similar requirement would need relevant housing-stock data and modelling capability, a database solution, and the rights or arrangements needed to provide and sub-licence the required data. The buyer selected a large specialist research organisation through a direct award without competition.
