## Summary

The London Borough of Waltham Forest procured a management system for Chingford Crematorium and Cemetery. The requirement covers cemetery and cremation services, including the software and operational capability needed to manage these activities. The work is delivered in England for the council’s crematorium and cemetery service. This is a specialist public-sector technology and service requirement rather than a general IT supply, with relevance for providers of cemetery management platforms, crematorium administration systems and associated implementation or support services. The successful supplier, GSS (NI) Ltd trading as PlotBox, is based in Ballymena and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise.

The procurement has been completed through an open procedure. The tender submission deadline was 26 August 2025, and the contract was awarded to GSS (NI) Ltd (t/a PlotBox) on 26 August 2026. The awarded value is £131,000. The awarded contract period runs from 11 September 2026 to 10 September 2031. The original estimated procurement value was £50,000. The council identified the requirement as cemetery and cremation services. The award is active and relates to a single supplier. The procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs. The available data does not set out separate lots or a detailed scoring model, so the award basis cannot be described beyond the use of the open procedure.

This opportunity demonstrates demand from London Borough of Waltham Forest for a specialist system supporting both crematorium and cemetery operations. Competitors seeking similar work would need a proven platform that handles the operational records, workflows and service administration associated with these settings, together with the capability to implement and support it for a public-sector buyer. Relevant suppliers are likely to be established cemetery or crematorium software providers, or technology businesses with demonstrable experience delivering comparable systems and maintaining them over a long service period. The selected supplier is an SME, but the requirement was classified as unsuitable for SMEs, indicating that future competitors should be able to demonstrate sufficient specialist capability, delivery capacity and public-sector reliability.
