## Summary

The Milton Keynes Council has recently awarded a contract for the Housing Information System NEC. The procurement process was a negotiated procedure without prior publication, with a total contract value of £1,532,500. The contract period is from August 1, 2022, to March 31, 2028. The procurement stage is now complete, and the tender period ended on July 1, 2022. The contract was awarded to NEC SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS UK LIMITED. The location of the procurement is in the South East region, United Kingdom. The industry category is services.

This awarded contract for the Housing Information System NEC by the Milton Keynes Council presents opportunities for businesses, especially those specialising in software packages and information systems services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to consider competing for this type of procurement. The project involves re-platforming the core IT system to align with the latest IT developments and transition to Cloud infrastructure by December 2022. Businesses with expertise in IT solutions and software development are well-suited to explore potential growth opportunities through this contract.

## Notice

The Housing Service management information system (NEC Software Solutions Limited - previously known as Northgate) is the core IT system we use to hold most of our landlord information and transactions, including elements such as tenancy and neighbourhood services and rent setting. As a result of IT developments, we must now re-platform the system, before December 2022, as the AIX servers (the current IT infrastructure that hosts these systems) are no longer supported by the provider. This also aligns with the decommissioning of the LGSS Northants Data Centre, whereby all core systems must be moved to the Cloud.
