Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

DEFRA commissioned property costs analysis as part of its Property Optimisation Programme. The work is a building services consultancy service, focused on analysing property costs. Delivery covers locations across England, including London, the East Midlands, East of England, North East, North West, South East, South West, West Midlands and Yorkshire and the Humber. An address in KT15 is also listed. The requirement is therefore relevant to consultancies with expertise in analysing property expenditure and advising on the costs associated with buildings and property portfolios.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to WSP UK Limited. The award was made on 31 August 2026, for £98,436.44. The contract period runs from 1 to 21 September 2026. DEFRA placed the work as a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 31 August 2026 at 12:00. The recorded suitability assessment marks the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement data.

This award demonstrates demand from DEFRA for consultancy to analyse property costs within a property optimisation programme. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable building-services consultancy expertise and the ability to assess property-related expenditure across a geographically dispersed portfolio. The selected supplier was WSP UK Limited, and the work was placed through a framework call-off, so framework membership and the ability to compete through that route would be important for suppliers seeking comparable work with this buyer. The procurement is marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that the buyer’s stated suitability assessment favoured suppliers able to meet the requirement outside those categories.
