Summary of the contracting process

Metropolitan Housing Trust Limited (MTVH) procured market research services for its housing organisation. The requirement covers market research activity, classified as market research services, to be delivered in the United Kingdom. It is a services procurement rather than a goods or construction requirement. The buyer is Metropolitan Housing Trust Limited, based in London. The requirement was arranged as a single procurement lot and relates to research support for MTVH. Businesses with experience in designing, managing and delivering market research for housing providers or other public-sector organisations would find the subject matter most relevant, particularly where their work can cover requirements across the UK.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to GARTNER U.K. LIMITED. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award is active and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 29 May 2026, with a service period from 1 June 2026 to 30 June 2027. Its value is £29,400 excluding VAT, or £35,280 including VAT. One lot was awarded in full to GARTNER U.K. LIMITED. The recorded outcome shows that the buyer selected a single supplier for the market research services. The procurement was treated as a services contract and the delivery location is the United Kingdom.

This procurement provides a clear indication that Metropolitan Housing Trust Limited buys external market research services from specialist commercial providers. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the practical capability to plan and deliver market research, analyse findings and present usable evidence to a housing-sector buyer. Experience of working with public authorities or housing organisations would help demonstrate understanding of tenant, customer, stakeholder or wider housing-market research needs. Suppliers should also be able to manage a UK-wide delivery requirement and provide a reliable service at the scale represented by this contract. The selected supplier is recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the buyer has used an established market research provider with the capacity to deliver the requirement.
