Summary of the contracting process

Homes England commissioned strategic research into how to unlock institutional investment in housing and mixed-use schemes in England. The work is a real estate advisory service, focused on attracting institutional capital to development rather than on delivering construction or managing housing directly. It was procured as Lot 1 of Homes England’s Property, Financial and Development Services Framework. The buying organisation is Homes England, the name adopted by the Homes and Communities Agency. The research concerns schemes across England; the recorded delivery location is England. This requirement sits within the buyer’s wider framework for property, financial and development services, but the specific work is institutional investor research.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Jones Lang LaSalle Limited. The contract was signed on 23 July 2026 and runs from 7 August 2026 to 15 January 2027. Its value is £74,000 excluding VAT (£85,200 including VAT). Homes England used a selective process to make an award under its framework, with competition. This was a below-threshold framework award. The opportunity was divided into one lot, covering institutional investor research. The available process details identify the competitive award route, but do not state the evaluation criteria used to select the supplier.

This award demonstrates demand from Homes England for strategic property research that can explain how institutional investors might be brought into housing and mixed-use schemes in England. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need strong real estate research and advisory capability, a sound understanding of institutional investment, and the ability to connect investor requirements with housing and mixed-use development opportunities. The work is specialised consultancy rather than general property services: suppliers should be able to produce evidence-based strategic analysis relevant to unlocking investment. The selected provider, Jones Lang LaSalle Limited, is a large supplier, indicating that a substantial research and advisory capability was brought to this assignment. The procurement was made competitively under a framework, so relevant framework access and the ability to compete through that route are commercially pertinent.
