UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Homes England commissioned real estate advisory services to develop the evidence for a public consultation on whether a Development Corporation, or alternative delivery arrangements, should be established for Greater Oxford. The work supports consideration of how development in the area could be delivered. Homes England is the buying organisation. The delivery location is identified only as the United Kingdom, so the specific place or places where the work is carried out are not stated in the procurement details.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Deloitte LLP. Homes England used a selective route, awarding below-threshold work under a framework; the call-off was not competitive. The contract was signed on 16 July 2026 and runs from 17 July to 30 November 2026, with a three-month extension option and a maximum extent to 28 February 2027. The contract value is £103,000 excluding VAT (£123,600 including VAT). The award is active, as is the contract. The procurement was structured as one lot. The stated purpose is to produce evidence for the consultation; no evaluation basis or eligibility criteria are recorded in the process details.

This award shows demand from Homes England for property and development advice that can underpin public consultation on delivery arrangements for a major growth area. Deloitte LLP, a large consultancy, was selected through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need strong real estate and development expertise, and the ability to develop robust evidence that can inform public-sector decisions about delivery models. It would also need to translate technical analysis into material suitable for a public consultation. The work is a focused advisory assignment rather than a construction contract; relevant suppliers are consultancies able to combine property-sector knowledge with evidence-led analysis and public-sector engagement.
