Summary of the contracting process

The Wheatley Housing Group Limited bought address validation software as a service for its housing and community amenities operations. The requirement covers software that validates addresses, supporting accurate customer, tenant and property records and related administrative processes. The service is delivered for the Group in Glasgow. This is a technology services requirement rather than a works or physical supply contract. The procurement was associated with CPV 72000000, covering information technology services. It formed part of the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework, showing that the buyer used an established public-sector route for sourcing cloud-based technology. The requirement was arranged as a single lot and represents a focused opportunity for providers of address data, verification and validation software.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The Wheatley Housing Group used an open procedure through the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework. Experian LTD was the selected supplier for the single lot. The contract was signed on 12 February 2026 and is active, with a value of £100,896.84. The planned contract term is three years, with an option described in the requirement to extend for a further 12 months. One bid was received, submitted electronically; it was from a non-EU supplier and was not from an SME. The published outcome does not set out separate quality, price or other evaluation weightings. The tender status is complete, and the lot status is also complete.

This outcome demonstrates a defined requirement within a housing group for dependable address validation software, with sufficient scale for a specialist or established data-services provider. A credible future competitor would need a proven address-validation product, reliable software delivery and the ability to support accurate records across housing operations. Experience handling large or complex address datasets would be relevant, as would strong data quality, matching and verification capability. Suppliers should be able to operate through an accepted public-sector cloud procurement route, such as a suitable framework, and provide electronic commercial and technical responses. The single-bid result indicates a narrowly contested requirement, while the selected supplier’s large-company scale suggests that resilience, implementation capacity and ongoing service support will matter when this need returns.
