Summary of the contracting process

Wandle Housing Association Limited commissioned employer’s agent consultancy for its Wandle Surrey County Hall scheme. The work covers on-site and post-contract support, providing the client-side oversight and advice associated with delivering the scheme and managing matters after construction contract award. This is a professional services requirement rather than a construction works contract. Delivery is associated with Surrey County Hall in the London area. The procurement was placed through the CHIC New Build framework’s consultancy provision. The buyer is Wandle Housing Association Limited, a London-based housing association; the service is specific to its Surrey County Hall project.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Bellrock Advisory LLP on 28 September 2026. The award value is £101,450. The contract period runs from 1 December 2025 to 30 November 2029. The requirement was awarded directly as a call-off from the CHIC New Build framework, rather than through a new open competition. The underlying consultancy provision is identified as lot 1 of that framework. The recorded response deadline for the procurement was 1 December 2024. Wandle Housing Association indicated that the requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award record does not state specific scored evaluation criteria or detailed eligibility conditions for the call-off.

For suppliers that missed this award, the requirement shows that Wandle Housing Association uses employer’s agent consultancy to support a major, named scheme through both on-site delivery and the post-contract phase. The selected supplier was a large advisory firm, and the work was bought through a consultancy lot on the CHIC New Build framework by direct call-off. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need demonstrable employer’s agent capability across active project oversight and post-contract support, with capacity to remain involved throughout a multi-year housing scheme. Familiarity with framework call-off delivery would also be commercially relevant. The buyer marked the service as suitable for SMEs, so appropriately experienced smaller consultancies may be credible competitors; the scale and breadth of the requirement should still be matched with sufficient staffing and continuity.
