Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Big Creative Academy procured project management consultancy for its estates and facilities work through the second lot of a professional services and consultancy dynamic purchasing system. The buyer is based in London, and the listed delivery address is Silver Birch House, Uplands Business Park, London E17 5SD. The requirement is for project management services rather than construction works or the supply of goods. The procurement identifies a single service category, with the academy as the buying organisation. The contract shows the type of project support this buyer has required within its estates and facilities programme; its direct relevance is to consultancies able to manage projects in that setting.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Lancaster Maloney Martin. The award was made on 23 October 2026, for £36,950. The contract period runs from 3 November 2026 to 13 August 2027. The original estimated procurement value was £60,000. The academy used an open procedure for a mini-competition under its dynamic purchasing system, and the procurement was divided into lots, with this requirement under Lot 2. The response deadline was 5 October 2026 at 1pm. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the available process details, so the basis for selecting the successful supplier cannot be described.

For project management consultancies, this award is evidence of demand from Big Creative Academy for project support connected specifically with estates and facilities. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to demonstrate relevant project management capability and the capacity to deliver services across a defined contract period, rather than simply offer general facilities support. The successful supplier was Lancaster Maloney Martin, showing that a consultancy was selected for this requirement. The original estimate and the lower awarded amount indicate the commercial scale of this particular commission, without implying that a future requirement will have the same budget. The route was a mini-competition within a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need to be positioned to participate in that type of competition.
