## Summary

Platform Housing Limited procured an interim service charge management solution for Platform Housing Group. The requirement covers the provision, implementation and licensing of the Service Charge Hub, a software-related service. It is intended to support changes to property hierarchies, maintenance of apportionment groups and rules, loading and analysis of costs, calculation of customer service charges, and generation of rent review outputs. The outputs include variances between current and proposed charges for the 2027/28 charging cycle. The service is delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a housing-sector operational and software implementation requirement, relevant to suppliers providing service charge, rent review, property data or related housing management systems and associated implementation support.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Future of Finance Consulting Limited, an SME. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold and was conducted without competition. The single lot is complete. The award is active and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 1 June 2026 and runs from 1 June 2026 to 30 April 2027. Its gross value is £66,000. The contract is for the interim Service Charge Management Solution. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one awarded lot. The procurement therefore records a completed, low-value direct route for a defined interim software solution rather than a competitive tender with multiple bidders or lots.

This procurement demonstrates a housing provider’s need for practical software and implementation support spanning service charge administration, property hierarchy management, apportionment rules, cost analysis, customer charge calculations and rent review outputs. Suppliers are well placed where they can provide a usable service charge management platform and configure it around housing property structures, charging rules and cost data. Credibility would come from showing that the system can manage changes accurately, analyse loaded costs, calculate charges reliably and produce customer-facing or operational rent review outputs, including comparisons between existing and proposed charges. Relevant competitors may include specialist housing software providers, service charge technology firms and consultancies with implementation capability. The buyer’s use of a defined interim solution also indicates value in demonstrating rapid, focused deployment and support.
