Summary of the contracting process

Notting Hill Genesis commissioned business and management consultancy services. The scope is described only as consultancy services, so the specific advice or workstream is not detailed. The procurement is categorised as services, with the item classification covering business and management consultancy and related services (CPV 79400000). Delivery is listed in the United Kingdom; no more specific location is identified. This is a single-lot requirement bought by Notting Hill Genesis, a housing organisation. The available scope is broad rather than tied to a defined specialism, so it is most relevant to consultancies able to provide the particular advisory services required by the buyer. The selected supplier was a large professional services firm.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Ernest & Young LLP. Notting Hill Genesis used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition; the contract is active. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026 and runs from 30 October to 31 December 2026. Its value is £100,000 excluding VAT and £120,000 including VAT. There was one lot, and the award is for consultancy services. The published data does not give an evaluation method or selection criteria, so the basis on which the supplier was chosen is not described. The award date is not provided. The process has therefore resulted in a contracted supplier, rather than an outstanding competition for this requirement.

This award shows that Notting Hill Genesis buys consultancy support through direct awards for below-threshold requirements, as well as the scale of a single short consultancy engagement. Ernest & Young LLP, a large professional services firm, was selected, indicating that a supplier with established consultancy capacity was able to fulfil the requirement. The service description is broad, so the specific expertise that made the supplier suitable cannot be identified from the published scope. For future work of this kind, a credible competitor would need to demonstrate relevant business and management consultancy capability and the capacity to deliver a focused assignment for a housing organisation. The award is useful evidence for consultancies tracking Notting Hill Genesis's demand, but it does not establish a particular advisory specialism, qualification or evaluation preference.
