Summary of the contracting process

Homes England commissioned monthly monitoring surveyor services to verify scheme expenditure on behalf of the National Housing Bank. The work is professional surveying and construction-related inspection services, delivered in England. The requirement centres on checking and validating spending on a scheme each month, rather than carrying out construction works. Homes England is the buying organisation. The service is relevant to surveying and property consultancy firms with the expertise to review project costs and provide regular monitoring for a public-sector housing finance programme.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award. Arcadis Consulting (UK) Limited was selected on 31 March 2026. The awarded contract value is £37,400. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 December 2027, with monthly monitoring services over that period. The tender submission deadline was 30 March 2026. The published details do not state a separate evaluation formula or scored criteria; the stated purpose is to verify scheme spend. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the procurement category is services.

For surveying and property consultancy suppliers, this award demonstrates demand from Homes England for recurring, monthly scrutiny of scheme expenditure on behalf of the National Housing Bank. A credible competitor would need to provide dependable monitoring surveyor capacity, assess scheme spending accurately and deliver clear, regular verification to support oversight of housing-related investment. The requirement is a defined professional services assignment rather than a large construction delivery package, so firms with a focused surveying and cost-monitoring offer may be relevant. The buyer marked the opportunity as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller firms could be considered for this type of work. Relevant experience in monitoring project expenditure and working with public-sector housing schemes would help a supplier demonstrate fit when a similar requirement returns to market.
