Summary of the contracting process

Orbit Group Limited is seeking consultancy support to develop an appropriate target cost model for its Planned Investment programme. The model will support property and home improvement works, remediation and major projects across Orbit’s housing stock in all regions of the United Kingdom. The requirement combines financial consultancy, building and construction consultancy, and business and management consultancy services. The successful consultant will help shape a cost model for Orbit’s future planned investment requirements and strategy. The work is managed by Orbit Group Limited, based in Coventry, and is intended for organisations able to advise on the commercial and delivery arrangements for a large housing investment programme.

The process has reached tender: Orbit invited suppliers to submit proposals through an open, below-threshold competition. There is one lot, with a gross value of £30,000. Enquiries were due by 5pm on 5 August 2026, and proposals were due by 5pm on 6 August 2026. Submissions must be made through the Procontract portal. The contract period is from 17 August 2026 to 1 July 2027. Proposals will be considered by Orbit’s Planned Investment procurement project team and Executive Team before selecting a proposal to meet the requirements of its future strategy. Orbit reserves the right to modify the contract throughout its term.

This opportunity suits SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises with consultancy capability spanning cost modelling, financial advice, building consultancy, construction consultancy or business and management advice. It is particularly relevant to firms experienced in planned investment, property and home improvement programmes, remediation, major projects or housing-sector delivery. Suppliers should be able to develop a practical target cost model that supports strategic decisions and future delivery across a housing stock covering all regions of the United Kingdom. The requirement is suited to specialists who can combine commercial analysis with an understanding of construction and property investment, and who can present recommendations clearly to both a procurement project team and an executive decision-making group.
