## Summary

The London Borough of Havering has recently completed the procurement process for a contract titled "Open Housing Software," classified under the CPV code for software packages and information systems. This contract falls within the goods category and pertains to the procurement of housing management software necessary for housing service delivery. The procurement process, finalised on 19th May 2026, was conducted through a limited method without prior publication, in accordance with the relevant legal regulations. The contract, valued at £487,000, was awarded to MRI Software Limited, and signed on 23rd March 2026. Located in Romford, the buying organisation aims to transition to a new IT system with sufficient time allocated for data migration and system implementation, ensuring continuity in housing services.

Businesses capable of offering advanced housing management systems, ensuring seamless integration and long-term support, are well-suited to engage in similar opportunities with local authorities like the London Borough of Havering. As the project forecast includes a three-year implementation period, businesses that specialise in long-term IT consultancy and systems integration stand to benefit significantly from such contractual engagements, potentially expanding their influence within the public sector IT domain.

### Procurement Information

The contract for the existing Housing IT system, Open Housing, expires on 31st March 2026. The winning bidder's typical project plan has estimated that a period of three years is allocated to allow for the system to be fully implemented. To support the Housing service delivery during this period, it will be necessary to continue to use Open Housing. The contract will allow enough time for data migration, implementation and legacy data storage to be organised until the replacement system is live.
