Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Homes England procured property professional and technical services for Northstowe, appointing a property agent to help deliver its performance targets. The requirement is for real estate services supporting the delivery of the Northstowe development, with work in England. The buyer is Homes England, the government body responsible for the procurement. The contracted service is property agency and related professional and technical support, rather than construction works or the supply of goods. This describes a single property-agent requirement for the Northstowe project.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Lambert Smith Hampton. The award date was 23 April 2024, and the service period runs from 24 April 2024 to 28 April 2028. The awarded contract value is £177,000. The estimated procurement value was also £177,000. The tender deadline was 21 April 2024. The recorded procurement method details say “Not applicable”; no other procedure or evaluation basis is identified in the published process information. The requirement is presented as one lot, covering the Northstowe property agent services. Homes England marked the opportunity as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates Homes England’s demand for a property agent to support delivery of Northstowe project targets. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to combine property agency capability with relevant professional and technical expertise, and show how its service can contribute to measurable project performance. The selected supplier is a large property services firm, indicating that an established provider was appointed for this requirement. Firms considering similar work for this buyer should be positioned to deliver property-agent services in support of a major development, rather than offer unrelated real estate services. The procurement was treated as unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, so potential competitors should consider whether they have the organisational scale and capacity to meet the buyer’s requirement.
