## Summary

Anchor Hanover Group commissioned consultancy support for its executive team. The work is to provide a “critical friend” role, with additional troubleshooting support as required. This is business and management consultancy rather than delivery of a defined operational service or physical works. The contract covers England, with delivery locations recorded across the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The requirement is centred on advice and support to the buyer’s executive team, so it is most relevant to consultancies able to work directly with senior leaders and provide constructive challenge alongside practical problem-solving.

The procurement is complete and awarded to GASCOIGNE CONSULTING LIMITED. The contract was signed on 3 August 2026 and runs from 3 August to 23 December 2026. Its value is £53,000 including VAT. The requirement was procured below the applicable threshold; the specific procedure is not identified. The procurement comprised one lot, covering the executive-team consultancy support as a single requirement. The recorded outcome is an active contract. The award basis and any detailed scoring or selection criteria are not set out in the available process information.

This award demonstrates a focused requirement for senior-level consultancy: a supplier must be able to act as a trusted critical friend to an executive team and provide troubleshooting support when needed. Credible competitors would need evidence of working effectively with senior decision-makers, offering independent judgement and challenge, and translating problems into practical responses. The single-lot arrangement indicates that the requirement was bought as a joined-up package rather than separated into distinct specialist workstreams. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, showing that this assignment was delivered by a smaller consultancy, although the process does not establish that SME status was a participation condition. For firms with relevant executive advisory experience and the capacity to support a UK-wide housing group, this is a useful indication of the buyer’s consultancy needs.
