What is being bought

Places for People (PfP) employs in excess of 13,000 colleagues operating across the UK. The organisation intends to continue acquiring and integrating other organisations to expand its scale and enhance the services it provides to people and communities. As a result, PfP anticipates sustained growth over the next 10 years, increasing both workforce size and operational complexity. This growth trajectory introduces increasing demands around: Organisational integration Process standardisation Data consistency and governance Scalable support for HR, finance, payroll, procurement, and asset management Rapid onboarding of newly acquired organisations and colleagues In this context, a modern, integrated ERP solution is fundamental to enabling PfP to operate efficiently at scale. The future ERP platform must support mergers and acquisitions, enable consistent and flexible processes, and provide reliable, organisation-wide management information. PfP's long-term strategy includes rationalising its technology landscape through the alignment of business capabilities to enterprise-grade solutions. PfP is undertaking a competitive procurement process to assess ERP solutions. The outcome of this process is intended to support the organisation's transformation by modernising core enterprise capabilities and ensuring they remain scalable, resilient, and aligned to future growth.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Enterprise resource planning software package (48451000); 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 setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 485,2341 median · 8.9 average (1,892 of 5,234 with a bid count)1.7 average (2,174 of 5,234 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.

Price-outcome signal

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.

This long-standing partnership has allowed us to manage our processes efficiently; however, as the contract is set to expire in 2029, it is essential that we begin to look ahead and evaluate the evolving technology landscape to ensure we continue to meet the needs of our business and stakeholders. \nRecognising the significance of a potential transition, we are actively reaching out to the market as part of a comprehensive pre-market engagement exercise. Our aim is to assess the latest advancements in ERP solutions, including new functionalities, system architectures, and integration capabilities, as well as to understand the direction of industry best practices. This proactive approach will help us identify opportunities to enhance our operations, improve value for money, and ensure compatibility with both current and future organisational priorities. \nBy consulting with a range of potential suppliers, we hope to gather critical insights into the strengths and limitations of modern SaaS ERP offerings. These insights will directly inform the drafting of our tender documents, helping us to articulate requirements that are both ambitious and realistic, and aligned with the latest technological innovations. This process is designed not only to ensure a seamless transition when our current contract concludes, but also to position Places for People at the forefront of digital transformation within our sector. \nUltimately, our goal is to ensure that our next ERP investment provides a robust, flexible, and future-proof platform capable of underpinning our continued growth and success, while supporting our mission to deliver aspirational homes and communities. \nKey Dates:\nSubmission Deadline: Friday 9th January\nShortlist for Demos: Friday 16th January\nDemos and Clarifications: 21st January - 30th January \nPlease note: Participation in this preliminary market engagement does not guarantee involvement in subsequent stages. Places for People reserves the right to determine the scope and format of engagement activities, including demonstrations. We may not invite all respondents to follow-up sessions or demos, and selection will be based on relevance to the requirements and the objectives of the engagement."
