Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Lewisham commissioned specialist business and management consultancy services to independently review its housing capital programme delivery and supporting management arrangements. The work covers delivery approaches, governance, performance monitoring and organisational processes. The expected output is a set of recommendations to support continuous improvement and strengthen delivery outcomes. It is a services requirement focused on housing investment programme management rather than construction delivery or property works. The work is for Lewisham, with the council based at Laurence House in Catford. This is therefore relevant to consultancies with experience of reviewing public-sector housing capital programmes, governance arrangements and organisational performance, particularly those able to provide independent assessments and practical improvement recommendations.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The council used a limited procedure as a direct-award call-off under the Guinness Partnership Framework for Asset and Property Management Consultancy, without further competition. Lumensol Ltd was selected as the highest-ranked supplier for the relevant framework lot. The contract value is £100,000 GBP and the contract was signed on 6 July 2026. The procurement records one bid. The evaluation criteria assigned 50 to cost; the available information does not set out the remaining criteria or a contract end date. The recorded lot status is cancelled, while the award and contract are active, so the active award and signed contract represent the outcome for this requirement.

This award demonstrates demand from Lewisham for independent consultancy that can examine housing capital programme delivery as a whole, rather than provide a single technical service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable capability in public-sector housing investment, programme assurance, governance reviews, performance monitoring and organisational process assessment. It would also need to turn evidence into clear, practical recommendations that improve delivery outcomes. Experience working with councils, housing organisations or comparable asset and property management programmes would help establish relevance. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the work can suit a focused specialist consultancy with the capacity to lead an independent review, engage with senior stakeholders and produce robust findings without relying on the scale of a large professional-services firm.
