Buyer: Newcastle City Council →
Newcastle City Council (NCC) is inviting demonstrations from providers ahead of the planned procurement of a Case Management and Homeless Accommodation Allocation System. This system will support the functions of all areas of the Active Inclusion Service (AIS): homelessness advice and support, temporary accommodation, debt advice, and refugee integration. In addition, the product must be able to manage referrals and placements to NCC's commissioned homelessness accommodation and application and allocation of a discretionary fund. We require a product that support the management of the Active Inclusion services. This includes: Specialist: Statutory HRA Assessment and upload to DLUHC system, H-CLIC Accommodation assessment, referral, placement selection and recording Debt case management and solutions Integration support for migrants, refugees and asylum seekers Allocation of discretionary funding Standard: Case Management Reporting Online and offline forms Configurable user access The current solutions are utilised by 500-600 staff, with 100-200 concurrent users, across the host and external partner organisations. In preparation for a future procurement exercise, via an open tender, suppliers are being given an opportunity to demonstrate their product, which will assist the Council with their specification and tender preparations. The same information will be gathered from all suppliers who participate in the event. There will be 5 Suppliers chosen to demonstrate their system to ensure the specification will be appropriate for the tender process in August 2025. There will be demonstration dates available from 30th June until 18th July 2025. These will be 90 minutes plus 15 minutes Q&A. **Demo Invitation - Limited Slots Available** We are inviting suppliers to participate in a 1 hour 30-minute demo session, which will include 15 minutes for Q&A. Please note: Only the first five suppliers to respond will be booked for a demo slot (first come, first served). The purpose of these demos is to gain insight into current market offerings and innovations. This will help us refine our specification and potentially include additional features based on what we learn. If you're interested in participating, please confirm your availability as soon as possible. The interest period will end on Wednesday 2nd July at 11.00.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 72. The category anchor is IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support (72000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 72 | 10,254 | 2 median · 15.3 average (4,053 of 10,254 with a bid count) | 1.9 average (4,905 of 10,254 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 6 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKC | 409 | 1 median · 13 average (177 of 409 with a bid count) | 2.6 average (196 of 409 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
