Public sector partnerships Lewisham Council is actively expanding collaboration with strategic partners and private sector groups (Grainger, Hill Group, CitySprint, St. Johns Society) to deliver housing, logistics, and community initiatives, presenting cross-sell opportunities for housing development, construction services, logistics solutions, and public-facing programs.

Homelessness housing The council plans to invest in 74 new homes for temporary accommodation, signaling a need for affordable housing development, asset acquisition and management solutions, as well as potential educational and social programs related to homelessness and community welfare.

Digital modernization With a tech stack including SAP, Sage, Azure, WordPress and collaboration tools, there is opportunity to offer integrated public-sector ERP/financials modernization, data analytics, cloud optimization, and digital citizen services tailored to borough-level operations.

Sustainability and health Lewisham emphasizes greener, healthier communities and upskilling residents, creating demand for sustainability reporting, green procurement, workforce development, and programs or platforms that measure health outcomes and environmental impact.

Funding and governance Annual revenue in the mid-range public sector band and a focus on codes of conduct and governance for housing staff indicate opportunities for compliance, risk management, governance software, training, and staff ethics programs aligned with funding cycles.
