Summary of the contracting process

Reading Borough Council procured data management and modelling software for its Housing Repairs and Property Services team. The requirement is for software used to manage data and support modelling; it is a technology and data-management service rather than general housing repair work. The procurement was for one requirement delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer used the Community and Housing Investment Consortium’s Healthy Homes framework, under its Digital Analytics and Reporting Platforms workstream within Digitisation. The awarded supplier, Cotality UK Limited, is based in Solihull. The software is intended to support the council team’s property services activity, so suppliers working in data platforms, analytics and modelling for housing or property operations are the closest commercial fit.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Cotality UK Limited. The award was made on 5 October 2026; the contract was signed on the same date and is active. Its value is £23,676. Reading Borough Council made a direct award through an existing framework, using a limited procedure without publishing a competition call. The award was evaluated on price. The process was arranged as a single lot, but that lot is recorded as cancelled while the award and contract are recorded as active. One bid was reported. The contract period is not stated in the available process data, so no end date or duration can be given.

For suppliers competing when Reading Borough Council next buys this type of software, the relevant capability is delivering data-management and modelling tools for housing repairs and property services teams. A credible provider would need to show that its platform can support the team’s data and analytics needs, including digital analytics and reporting, and that it can be supplied through an appropriate compliant framework route. The council selected a supplier through a direct framework award, with price as the evaluation basis, so framework access and competitive pricing are commercially important alongside a close fit to the operational requirement. The award to a small supplier shows that this requirement was delivered by an SME, although the process gives no specific technical standards, accreditations or staffing requirements to use as a benchmark.
