## Summary

Homes in Somerset Limited, in collaboration with Somerset Council, is currently in the planning stage for a potential tender focused on the development of a new housing management system. This endeavour falls under the industry categories of software package and information systems, as well as IT services such as consulting and software development. The initiative is set within the region of South West England (UKK23). As part of the planning stage, pre-market engagement has commenced to assess recent advancements in IT solutions that could enhance current housing management solutions. Supplier demonstrations are scheduled throughout March, following a preliminary engagement deadline of 23rd February 2026. Interested parties were advised to express their interest by acquiring documentation through contact with Homes in Somerset, with further updates set to appear on the designated procurement portal.

This tender represents a key opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services and software development to offer innovative solutions catering to public sector housing management requirements. With a focus on finding enhanced technological offerings, companies that show proficiency in developing scalable and efficient IT solutions for public authorities will find this venture beneficial for strategic growth. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the tender's suitability criteria. As the process evolves into potentially opening the tender to the wider market, businesses that can demonstrate substantial improvements over existing systems and flexibility in delivery will be well positioned to compete effectively.

## Notice

Homes in Somerset and Somerset Council are reviewing their current housing management solutions to enable a procurement exercise to take place if it is discovered that there have been sufficient IT advancements in the housing solution market to benefit from a new tender being issued. At this stage it is anticipated that an open market tender will be released in the future but we reserve the right to cancel this process if the market is unable to provide sufficient enhancements to the current solution that is used. This early market engagement activity will give suppliers an opportunity to showcase to HIS/SC what can be achieved

### Planning Information

The engagement process will commence with the completion of a document which confirms the requirements as initially expected. Bidders should complete this document to conclude what they have to meet the requirements. The second stage will be a demo which will take place at the end of March.
To express an interest and to obtain the pre market engagement documentation please email procurement@homesinsomerset.org. The opportunity will shortly be advertised on https://in-tendhost.co.uk/his/ it is suggested that interested parties also register on this portal for further updates
