UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

mhs homes group bought home-swapping software services to support people seeking to exchange homes. The service is software-related and is intended for use across England, with delivery covering 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 mhs homes group, a housing organisation based in Chatham. The requirement is for a software service rather than physical works or goods, and the stated scope is the provision of home-swapper software.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. mhs homes group selected MRI Software Limited through a direct award below the threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. Its value is £31,728 excluding VAT (£38,073.60 including VAT). The procurement was a single lot. The award is recorded as active, and the contract is in force. No evaluation criteria or competitive assessment basis are recorded for this direct award.

This award shows demand from mhs homes group for a home-swapping software service used across multiple English regions. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide software that supports the home exchange process and can serve a geographically broad housing customer base. The chosen supplier, MRI Software Limited, is a large software company, indicating that the buyer selected an established provider for this service. Suppliers with relevant housing-sector software capability, a service suitable for use across England and the capacity to support an ongoing software arrangement would be best placed to compete if this buyer purchases the requirement again.
