## Summary

Fareham Borough Council procured Objective Keyplan, a purpose-built digital engagement and plan-making platform for Local Plan preparation and consultations. The requirement is software and information systems supporting the council’s planning processes, including digital engagement with consultees and plan-making activity. Fareham Borough Council is the buying organisation, based in Fareham, Hampshire, and the service is for its local planning work. The procurement was structured as a single requirement rather than separate lots. This opportunity is relevant to software providers, planning technology businesses and consultancies with products that support statutory or public-sector plan preparation, consultation management, stakeholder engagement and related information workflows. Suppliers offering configurable platforms for local authorities and planning teams are the closest commercial comparators.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. The contract was signed on 11 June 2026 and awarded to Objective Corporation UK Limited. The active contract runs from 22 June 2026 to 21 June 2028, with an optional priced 12-month extension available to 21 June 2029 if exercised with 60 days’ notice before the end of the second year. Its value is £50,225 excluding VAT, or £60,270 including VAT. The award covers the single lot and software requirement. The tender is recorded as complete, while the award and contract are active. The procurement was below the applicable threshold and was not evaluated through a competitive tender process.

This procurement shows Fareham Borough Council’s demand for a specialist digital platform combining local-plan preparation with public consultation and engagement. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a proven planning technology product, or an equivalent service, that can support the full workflow rather than consultation in isolation. Relevant strengths include configurable plan-making tools, secure handling of consultation responses and stakeholder data, accessible digital engagement, clear reporting and dependable support for council planning teams. Experience of delivering software to local authorities, understanding of planning-policy processes and the capacity to maintain a live platform over a multi-year service period would strengthen a supplier’s position. Businesses able to demonstrate implementation, user support and integration capability would be well placed to compete when this type of requirement next reaches the market.
