Summary of the contracting process

The Wheatley Housing Group Limited is exploring a secure, integrated board and entity management software system for its housing and community-focused organisation in Glasgow. The service would support board governance and the management of group entities, subsidiaries and statutory obligations. Expected functionality includes a board portal, meeting and agenda management, distribution of papers, decision and action tracking, entity records, statutory registers and returns, filing support, document storage and audit trails. The system should improve visibility of board activity, entity information, compliance deadlines, approvals, actions and reporting. The requirement also covers implementation and delivery services, including discovery, configuration, data migration, integration, training, support and change management.

This procurement is at the planning stage and is currently a market engagement rather than an invitation to tender. Wheatley Housing Group expects to use supplier responses to understand available integrated solutions, delivery models, integration constraints and indicative commercial arrangements before defining a future procurement. The engagement covers licensing, implementation, data migration, support, hosting, additional modules and recurring charges, but does not set a contract value. There is one planned lot covering the software system and related services. The buyer’s indicative date for a future notice is 1 December 2026. Interested suppliers are expected to provide information through a questionnaire, helping the buyer assess whether one provider can meet both board and entity management requirements.

The engagement will suit software vendors with an established board governance and entity management platform, particularly those serving complex groups, subsidiaries, regulated organisations or public-sector bodies. Strong candidates are likely to offer secure governance-focused software with board portals, meeting workflows, statutory registers and returns, filing support, audit trails, compliance monitoring and management reporting as standard. Suppliers should be able to explain practical delivery approaches covering discovery, configuration, migration from existing systems, integrations, user training, ongoing support and change management. Compatibility with Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Teams, Outlook, electronic signatures, identity management and existing governance or compliance systems will be important. Providers able to offer flexible licensing and commercial models, including hosting and optional modules, should prepare market-engagement information rather than a bid at this stage.
