The Norwich City Council has successfully completed a procurement process to engage a consultant for housing transformation services, with a total contract value of £71,500. This project, classified under project management consultancy services (CPV code 72224000), commenced on 23rd June 2022 and will run until 30th September 2022. The procurement method followed a direct single tender action due to being below threshold, with the appointment formalised after a competitive interview process involving the selected supplier, Allens Lane.
