## Summary

The Corporate Officers of the House of Lords and House of Commons procured an HR and payroll cloud solution. The requirement is for iTrent human resources and payroll cloud licences, together with software support. The work covers software support services and related software programming and consultancy services. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The solution is intended to provide the parliamentary authorities with cloud-based HR and payroll capability, supported through the relevant licences and ongoing technical support. This is a public-sector technology services requirement centred on the iTrent platform, rather than a general HR consultancy or a standalone payroll service. Suppliers operating in enterprise HR, payroll software licensing, cloud hosting support, systems integration or software maintenance would recognise the relevant service area.

The procurement is complete and was conducted as a direct award to a single supplier under the Procurement Act 2023, Schedule 5, paragraph 5, because the iTrent platform is protected by exclusive, non-transferable intellectual property rights. The award value is £3,700,000 excluding VAT, or £4,440,000 including VAT. The contract period is 7 November 2026 to 6 November 2029, with two optional 12-month extensions, allowing a maximum end date of 6 November 2031. Optional licences are included within the total value. The procurement consisted of one lot and is recorded as above-threshold services. A future contract-signature milestone was scheduled for 6 October 2026. The award record identifies the outcome as pending.

This procurement indicates demand for a supplier able to provide and support the iTrent HR and payroll cloud platform for major public authorities. The decisive commercial capability is control of, or authorised rights to use, the platform’s relevant intellectual property: the authority’s rationale states that no alternative supplier could modify, host, integrate or maintain iTrent without infringing those rights. A credible competitor for a future requirement would therefore need demonstrable iTrent expertise, licensing authority and the technical capacity to deliver cloud services, integrations, software support and related consultancy at parliamentary scale. Experience maintaining a live HR and payroll environment, managing optional licences and providing dependable long-term support would also be directly relevant. General HR advisory services without iTrent platform capability would not match this requirement.
