Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Government Property Agency procured short-term professional services to deliver its Contract Management Improvement Plan across the Workplace Services Directorate and provide commercial and contract management assurance to Project Gabriel. This is specialist contract-management and commercial assurance support, rather than a purchase of property or workplace goods. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom. The requirement brings together organisation-wide improvement-plan delivery with assurance for a named project, so it is relevant to professional services firms able to support public-sector contract management and commercial oversight.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Investigo Limited. The award date was 30 September 2026, and the contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The awarded value is £191,250. The contract was placed through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The stated submission deadline was 30 September 2026. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published outcome records one award; no lot-by-lot split or separate evaluation criteria are stated. The work covers delivery of the improvement plan and assurance for Project Gabriel within the same contract.

For firms competing when this requirement returns to market, the award demonstrates demand from the Government Property Agency for focused professional support combining contract-management improvement with commercial assurance. A credible supplier would need to show it can deliver an improvement plan across a directorate while also providing project-specific assurance, rather than offering general consultancy alone. Experience in public-sector commercial management, contract oversight and translating improvement plans into practical delivery would be directly relevant. The scale is a short-term, single-year assignment with two linked workstreams, so suppliers need capacity to support organisational change and project assurance concurrently. The framework call-off route also indicates that future competitors may need access to an appropriate framework and the ability to compete through its call-off process.
