Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Lambeth commissioned a resident satisfaction survey programme for its housing management service. The work comprises three surveys carried out for Lambeth, providing intelligence to inform policy, decision-making and performance management across the organisation. It covers customer satisfaction surveying, surveying services and performance review services. Delivery is for the London Borough of Lambeth and relates to its housing management residents. The requirement is a public-sector research and insight service rather than construction, housing repairs or general property management. Suppliers would need to provide structured resident research capable of producing reliable evidence about satisfaction and service performance, with outputs that can support organisational decisions and ongoing performance monitoring.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure. Five bids were received and one reached the final stage. Kwest Research Limited was awarded the contract on 3 July 2026 for £162,245.16 excluding VAT, or £194,694.19 including VAT. The contract was signed on 17 July 2026 and runs from 27 July 2026 to 31 March 2029. The original estimated value was £282,000 excluding VAT, or £338,400 including VAT. Evaluation allocated 60% to price and 40% to quality: fieldwork and sampling methodology 10%, quality assurance 10%, reporting and analysis 10%, project-management skills and knowledge 5%, and business continuity 5%. The requirement is identified as recurring.

This award is commercially relevant to market-research agencies and specialist social or public-sector insight providers experienced in resident satisfaction surveys. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate robust fieldwork and sampling methodology, dependable quality-assurance controls, and the ability to analyse findings and present useful reports to a housing-management client. Strong project management, including relevant skills and knowledge, is important, as is business continuity: suppliers must be able to maintain delivery across a multi-survey programme. The evaluation gave greater weight to price than any individual quality area, so bidders would need a competitive and transparent pricing model alongside sound technical methods. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable smaller research business.
