Cemetery Administration Software

Fenland District Council operates across seven cemeteries, with an average of 250 interments per annum, being a mix of both cremation and burials. This is administered through the Council’s in-house bereavement team with site operational works carried out by the Council’s grounds maintenance contractor. In addition, a rolling memorial inspection plan is in place checking approximately 50,000 memorials on a 5-year rotational basis.

Fenland District Council is looking for a software package to process all aspects of cemetery management including plot mapping, bookings, payments and memorial safety inspections.

Minimum Requirement

• Suppliers should have a proven track record in supply of cemetery administration software to local authorities.
• Software to be capable of plot mapping existing burials.
• It must be able to book new burials and all appointments, funeral or other.
• The software should be able to provide statistical information.
• The software must comply with current legislation.
• The software must be capable of memorial safety inspection process and recording information within current legislation.
• The software should be web-enabled allowing users to access information about their bookings via the web, a payment portal, and the ability to book online.


We are looking for an ‘off the shelf’ solution which can be tailored to suit Fenland District Council’s detailed specification. It is possible that the contract may wish to be extended in future to encompass the requirements of any shared service arrangement Fenland District Council may put in place with another authority.
