Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority commissioned consultancy to support its Brownfield Housing Fund programme, which aims to unlock 1,142 homes on brownfield land. The work is to help the Council shortlist first-year schemes by assessing deliverability and potential delivery risks, then assess individual sites and prepare the relevant reports. This is an alternative-provider requirement arising from conflicts of interest among applications for the main requirement, which has already been satisfied. The service is delivered for the authority in Lincoln, with the procurement listing Lincoln as the delivery location. The work sits within business and management consultancy services, specifically brownfield site assessment and development appraisal.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Arcadis Consulting (UK) Limited. The award date was 25 September 2026 and the contract period runs from 28 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The awarded value is £47,832. The authority used a selective route through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 25 September 2026. The service is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published information does not describe separate lots or an evaluation weighting; the stated requirement centres on shortlisting schemes according to deliverability and potential delivery risks, followed by site assessments and reports.

For firms seeking comparable work, this award shows demand from Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority for consultancy that can appraise brownfield housing sites and help prioritise schemes for delivery. A credible competitor would need to assess site deliverability and identify risks that could affect delivery, then turn findings into clear, relevant site reports for the Council. The programme’s aim of unlocking 1,142 homes indicates that the work is connected to a substantial housing pipeline, while this specific alternative-provider assignment is bounded to a first-year shortlist and site assessments. The requirement was placed through a framework call-off, so relevant framework access and the ability to respond to that route would matter. The procurement was marked suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, and the award demonstrates that specialist consultancies can meet this requirement.
