UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Southwark commissioned independent tenant and leaseholder advisory services for Phase 2 of the Tustin Estate programme. The work is to provide independent support and facilitate communication between residents and the council. It is a community, social and personal service delivered for Southwark’s residents and leaseholders in connection with the estate. The requirement is therefore suited to organisations that advise tenants and leaseholders, support resident engagement, or act as an independent intermediary during estate regeneration and housing-related change. The buyer is Southwark Council, a sub-central public authority. The selected service provider is Newman Francis Ltd, an SME based in Stratford, London.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Newman Francis Ltd. Southwark used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. One lot was awarded. The contract was signed on 14 July 2026 and runs from 14 July 2026 to 14 March 2030. Its value is £75,650 excluding VAT, or £90,780 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the council’s limited-competition process, with the contract covering independent tenant and leaseholder advisory services for Tustin Estate Phase 2. This is a concluded procurement rather than an opportunity to submit a bid, but its outcome identifies the route and scale used by Southwark for this requirement.

This award demonstrates demand from Southwark for specialist, independent resident-facing support linked to housing and estate regeneration. Competitors would need credible experience advising tenants and leaseholders, facilitating communication between residents and a council, and maintaining independence while working within a public-sector programme. Strong resident engagement, accessible communication, consultation and advocacy skills would be relevant, alongside the ability to understand housing, leasehold and regeneration issues. A suitable provider would need to manage relationships with both residents and the authority, represent residents’ interests clearly, and deliver consistent support across a multi-year assignment. The award to an SME indicates that this type of requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist organisation rather than only a large professional-services contractor.
