Summary of the contracting process

Homes England commissioned property advisory services for the proposed Temple Works Leeds business case. The work is to provide property advice, supported by an architect and a cost consultant. This is a property consultancy commission rather than a construction contract: the stated requirement concerns advice on the business case, with architectural and cost-consultancy support. Homes England is the buying organisation. The item’s delivery information includes Newcastle upon Tyne, but does not identify a specific delivery location in Leeds; Temple Works Leeds is the project named in the commission. The requirement is categorised as real estate services (CPV 70000000).

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective procedure. The initial award was dated 28 May 2026 to Cushman and Wakefield, at £85,364. The award record was later corrected: the earlier award notice was withdrawn as incorrect, and a replacement award was published on 29 September 2026. The replacement still names Cushman and Wakefield as supplier, with the same awarded value. The contract period runs from 3 June to 22 July 2026. The original tender deadline was 26 May 2026. The process has one stated requirement and no lot breakdown. The published data gives no evaluation criteria or specific supplier eligibility conditions.

For a future Temple Works Leeds business-case commission, credible competitors would need to combine property advisory expertise with access to architectural and cost-consultancy support. The award shows that Homes England procured a defined, time-limited advisory assignment rather than building works, and selected a large property consultancy. A supplier would therefore need to demonstrate it can develop property advice for a proposed business case and coordinate the relevant design and cost input. The recorded SME suitability is false, which indicates the commission was not presented as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Firms considering similar work for this buyer should assess whether they can provide the breadth of advice and supporting professional expertise shown by this requirement.
