OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Viewpoint Housing Association, based in Edinburgh, has completed a procurement process for an IT system to enhance its human resources function. The contract award process followed a direct award call-off from a UK framework, specifically the CCS G Cloud 14. This procurement, within the housing and community amenities category (COFOG 06), took place under the award procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. The contract was awarded on February 13, 2026, with IRIS Software Ltd selected as the supplier, delivering services within the UKM75 region of Edinburgh. The process falls outside the scope of certain regulatory directives, indicated as GPA covered.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT systems for human resources, particularly those familiar with public sector frameworks such as the CCS G Cloud. It is well-suited for firms capable of providing high-quality IT services, with quality being a significant criterion in the award decision. The procurement method suggests preference for established suppliers within the framework, offering a path for such businesses to expand their services into housing associations and potentially other public sector bodies. Despite the limited competitive nature of the procurement, involvement in frameworks like G Cloud can yield valuable recurring opportunities in the public sector.
