## Summary

Homes England procured a software licence for the Esuasive Notes Attachment Plugin, together with support services. The package covers the annual licence and support fees, plus a one-off implementation fee. This is administrative software intended for use by Homes England. Delivery is across England, covering the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The requirement is for the software and its associated implementation and ongoing support, rather than a broader software development or consultancy programme.

Homes England made a direct award without competition, below the relevant threshold. The procurement is complete, DB Group Limited trading as Esuasive was selected, and the contract is active. The award was made on 21 April 2026; the contract was signed on that date and runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2027. Its value is £12,500 excluding VAT and £15,000 including VAT. The agreement has an initial one-year term, with annual automatic renewals permitted up to a maximum total term of five years. The procurement was arranged as one lot. The source gives no separate scoring basis or evaluation criteria for this direct award.

For suppliers seeking to compete for comparable future Homes England requirements, this award demonstrates a focused demand for a specialist administrative software product bundled with implementation and support. A credible provider would need to offer a suitable notes-attachment plugin, deploy it effectively for a national organisation, and sustain the licence and user support over a continuing service term. The incumbent is a small and medium-sized supplier, showing that this requirement was delivered by an SME rather than necessarily requiring the resources of a large systems integrator. The buyer used a below-threshold direct award without competition on this occasion, so the award does not establish a competitive evaluation model. Providers should be able to demonstrate product fit, reliable implementation and ongoing support capability for Homes England’s geographically broad operations.
