Summary of the contracting process

Homes England commissioned business and management consultancy services for its Integrated Change Programme. The appointed strategic partner was to help design, assure and mature the Strategic Target Operating Model and its implementation roadmap. The work included rapid mobilisation into existing operating-model materials, governance and ways of working; structured methods, facilitation and analysis to improve design maturity across workstreams; independent challenge and assurance; and reusable templates, guidance and a design library for continued delivery. The supplier would work within a blended team alongside Homes England. The services were delivered across England. This is a strategic transformation and operating-model assignment rather than a routine operational or technology implementation contract.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded on 24 July 2026 to Deloitte LLP. It was run as an MCF4 Lot 2 further competition for an Integrated Change Programme strategic partner. The estimated procurement value was £2,000,000 including VAT status as stated in the procurement data, while the awarded value was £679,998. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 22 June 2026 at 23:59. The contract was evaluated through the further-competition process; the published data identifies the requirement as consultancy services but does not set out the detailed scoring or weighting. The opportunity was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award indicates demand from Homes England for senior consultancy capability in strategic operating-model design and organisational change. A credible future supplier would need to mobilise quickly into established artefacts, governance and blended-team arrangements, then provide practical facilitation and analytical capacity across several workstreams. Experience of translating strategic objectives into implementable target operating models and delivery roadmaps would be central, alongside the ability to test assumptions, provide independent challenge and assure evidence-based outputs. Useful delivery strength would include producing clear, reusable methods, templates, guidance and design libraries rather than relying solely on advisory reports. The buyer’s stated SME and VCSE suitability position, together with the scale and complexity of the requirement, points towards a well-resourced consultancy with comparable public-sector transformation experience.
