eSourcing Data: Intelligent Procurement Software

eSourcing Data is the UK’s leading provider of procurement software, delivering modern, intelligent tools that make sourcing and procurement simpler, safer, and more effective.
 
We specialise in sub-threshold and regulated procurement, where governance risk is high, scrutiny is real, and traditional systems are either too heavy or not fit for purpose.

Our platforms are built around how procurement actually works. Not theory. Not enterprise complexity for its own sake. Real-world buying that must be compliant, proportionate, auditable, and efficient.

Through a unified procurement ecosystem, eSourcing Data supports both sides of the market: buyers who need control and defensibility, and suppliers who need clarity and opportunity. Our software helps organisations buy correctly, manage risk, and deliver better value - without slowing down decision-making.

What we do

eSourcing Data provides procurement and sourcing software that supports the full upstream buying lifecycle - from requirement and supplier selection through to contract award and governance. We work with public bodies, arm’s-length organisations, charities, SMEs, and suppliers operating in regulated and sub-threshold environments.

Our solutions replace fragmented processes, email-based sourcing, and spreadsheet tracking with structured workflows that enforce good procurement behaviour by design. Every decision is logged. Every award is defensible. Every contract is visible.

We deliver this through two complementary platforms:

• HostAContract.com – buyer-side sourcing and contract hosting
• WinAContract.com – supplier-side opportunity intelligence and bid enablement

Together, they form a two-sided procurement ecosystem that improves outcomes while maintaining strict separation of buyer and supplier data.

How we do it

Confident, compliant buying with HostAContract

HostAContract is a buyer-side procurement platform designed for organisations that need governance without bureaucracy. It enables structured sourcing, secure supplier engagement, and contract visibility from award to expiry.

Key capabilities include:

• RFI, RFQ, and RFP creation and hosting
• upplier onboarding and secure communications
• Controlled document exchange and version control
• Centralised contract repository
• Award justification, decision logging, and audit trails
   

HostAContract is especially strong in sub-threshold procurement, where informal processes create disproportionate risk. The platform enforces value caps, mandatory justification, minimum competition rules, and conflict-of-interest declarations. Every award automatically generates a complete audit pack, ensuring decisions are challenge-proof.

For charities and SMEs, HostAContract provides lighter-touch governance focused on transparency and trust - budget confirmation, trustee or finance sign-off, supplier rationale, and renewal alerts - without legal or regulatory complexity.

Winning the right work with WinAContract

WinAContract is a supplier-side eSourcing and opportunity intelligence platform. It helps suppliers stop chasing the wrong tenders and focus effort where they can realistically win.

Core capabilities include:

• Public and private sector contract discovery
• Bid/no-bid qualification and scoring
• Buyer and authority intelligence
• Deadline, compliance, and submission tracking
• Bid collaboration and audit trails
   

WinAContract is not a buyer procurement system, ERP, or contract execution tool. Its purpose is clear: to help suppliers identify the right opportunities, understand buyer behaviour, and bid with confidence.

One ecosystem, two perspectives

HostAContract and WinAContract operate as a connected but separated ecosystem. Buyers control whether sub-threshold opportunities remain closed or are surfaced to the wider supplier market. That choice is explicit, logged, and auditable - supporting transparency without compromising governance.

This approach widens access for SMEs and charities while protecting buyers from unmanaged risk.

Why we do it

Procurement risk does not sit only in large tenders. It concentrates in low-value, high-volume decisions where poor records, weak justifications, and missing contracts expose organisations to audit challenge and reputational damage.

At the same time, suppliers face fragmented tender data, unclear signals, and wasted bid effort.

eSourcing Data exists to fix both sides of that problem. Our platforms make good procurement easier, bad procurement harder, and outcomes better for buyers and suppliers alike.

Beyond software: consultancy and enterprise solutions

Alongside our platforms, eSourcing Data provides expert procurement consultancy and bespoke, enterprise-grade solutions. We support organisations with complex procurement environments, helping them design proportionate, defensible processes that reflect policy, governance, and operational reality.

Our consultancy covers procurement strategy, governance design, sub-threshold and regulated process modelling, and supplier market engagement. We work with clients to define how procurement should function before embedding those rules into technology.

For larger organisations, we deliver tailored solutions including custom workflows, advanced rule engines, and integration with existing systems and data. This combined approach enables enterprise-scale procurement that is robust, auditable, and built to last.

Working with us

eSourcing Data is built for public sector reality. Our platforms are secure, policy-aware, and designed to stand up to scrutiny from auditors, regulators, trustees, and funders. We are known for clarity, reliability, and rapid adoption.

Whether you are buying, supplying, or governing spend, eSourcing Data provides the software and intelligence to do it properly.
