What is being bought

Citizen is a major housing provider in the West Midlands, managing 30,000 homes across Coventry, Birmingham, and surrounding rural areas. Our customers live in a wide range of homes, from family houses to high rise apartments, supported housing, and schemes for older people. While most customers rent, we also support many shared owners and leaseholders. Our purpose is to provide homes that act as a foundation for life, and we are continuing to transform our services to better meet customer needs. Our new Business Strategy (2026-2030) sets out two key ambitions: • to deliver services shaped by customers that feel personal and exceed expectations, and; • to use data and technology to provide more proactive services and faster outcomes. Although we hold extensive information about our customers and homes, we want to strengthen how we use this insight to understand our customers more deeply and tailor communication, engagement, and service delivery. We are therefore seeking to engage with organisations that can support us in developing a customer segmentation model or approach that is right for Citizen and aligned with our strategic ambitions. We want to explore market capability, understand available methodologies, and inform a potential future procurement process. Proposals will subsequently be invited from consultancy practices who can demonstrate: • A proven track record in delivering similar segmentation projects • Extensive knowledge of social housing operations, and customer bases • Dedicated team, with the skills and experience required for the services. Interested parties are invited to respond to this engagement notice by indicating their intention, capacity and capability to participate in future procurement processes, by emailing Callum.Swingler@citizenhousing.org.uk Any questions or comments regarding the requirement can also be raised through the above email address. Once the engagement period has ended, Citizen will invite suitable consultancies to participate in a further procurement process.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 72. The category anchor is Business analysis consultancy services (72221000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 726,6751 median · 15.5 average (2,500 of 6,675 with a bid count)1.9 average (2,976 of 6,675 with named award suppliers)Not published

Similar published value (0.5×–2×)1831 median · 1 average (4 of 183 with a bid count)1 average (4 of 183 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
