href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/construction-technology-news\/project-management-software-viewpoint\/89885\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">project management<\/a> to principles of market failure<\/h2>\n<p>Councils are set to receive enhanced support for their housebuilding efforts after Homes England cut the ribbon on its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.local.gov.uk\/topics\/economic-growth\/revitalising-town-centres-toolkit-councils\/folk\/capacity-mapping-and-team\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Local Government Capacity Centre<\/a> today.<\/p>\n<p>The Capacity Centre was conceived as Homes England looked to structure itself to work more productively with local government and help meet the government\u2019s ambition of creating 300,000 homes a year by 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Following research and consultation on where the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/covid-19-on-housebuilding\/86354\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sector most needs support<\/a>, the centre will begin to offer a range of tools and initiatives to boost skills and help authorities with their end-to-end development plans.<\/p>\n<p>Homes England is making it easier for local government to access relevant information.<\/p>\n<h3>Information includes:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Streamlining access to resources online<\/li>\n<li>Offering information about funds available to help deliver more homes<\/li>\n<li>Creating a library of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/collections\/housing-development-support-for-local-government-projects\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">guidance and best practice tools<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Supporting capacity and skills development<\/h3>\n<p>Peter Freeman, chair of Homes England, said: \u201cEffective partnerships are essential if we are to build the homes the country needs, so it is vital that we offer accessible tools, skills, funding and people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d like to thank our local government colleagues for their input as we\u2019ve developed the capacity centre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m confident it marks a real step forward \u2013 so please join us on the summer learning programme where we can build deeper and more fruitful partnerships.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Housing minister, Chris Pincher, added: \u201cLocal government is crucial in creating the homes and places people need and Homes England has a central role to play in supporting their capacity and skills development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI look forward to seeing how the new centre supports local government in delivering the homes this country needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The summer learning programme will run from 14 to 25 June.\u00a0<a
