This procurement process aims to replace the existing Universal Housing Management System provided by CIVICA in London, England. The engagement end date for interested parties to respond is set for 12 December 2019. The tender falls under the software package and information systems industry category, which includes various functionalities essential for effective housing management operations. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in software development, particularly those focusing on housing management solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) will find this engagement particularly suitable as it aims to source innovative solutions to modernise the current system. Competitors should possess expertise in automating processes, data management, and integration of various functionalities within a cohesive housing management platform. ## Notice The catalyst for change is the need to replace the existing Universal Housing Management System of CIVICA, which doesn't offer many of the features and functionality found in more modern housing systems. Though we have been using the system for several years but we need to replace it with an upgraded and robust Housing Management Solution. In the current system, there are many tasks which staff members still need to do manually which need to be automated in the new system. Unlike other modern systems, it does not support all the required needs and functionality for the organisation. This has meant smaller IT solutions have been procured over the years to fill the gaps. This in turn has led to many problems of holding data in different systems, and also a high degree of duplication of data recording. There is currently no one system that can be relied on to provide a true holistic view of property, tenant and income information. Core functionalities Our current Housing Management system covers several functionalities * Holding master data for rents, property, customers, household and tenancy data * Rent accounting functionality- including refunds and deposits * The system forms the basis of the statistical Data Returns * Tenancy management, e.g. application to succession * Income Management- Including arrears cash collection, rent statements * Voids Management * Letting management * Statement generation and other correspondence * It is the only source of information for property history ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/128913f9-ce1d-4582-942d-f3e8e7e4b078 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Nov 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 12 Dec 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ONE HOUSING GROUP LIMITED | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North West London | | Postcode | NW1 8EH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Camden Town | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems ### Codes - 48000000 - Software package and information systems ## Release History - 28 Nov 2019 at 17:12 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/128913f9-ce1d-4582-942d-f3e8e7e4b078 - 27 Nov 2019 at 16:00 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/128913f9-ce1d-4582-942d-f3e8e7e4b078 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/128913f9-ce1d-4582-942d-f3e8e7e4b078 28th November 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/597382b2-9f26-4120-aaf2-33d8faf0bd98 Market Engagement ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
