Customer Segmentation Consultancy Support

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:

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:

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.
