Summary of the contracting process

The Restoration and Renewal Delivery Authority Ltd commissioned second-line commercial assurance services for the Restoration & Renewal Programme. The work falls within business and management consultancy and related services (CPV 79400000) and is to be delivered in London, United Kingdom. The requirement is a professional assurance and commercial advisory service supporting the programme, rather than the supply of physical goods or construction works. It is categorised as a services opportunity and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The buyer is the Restoration and Renewal Delivery Authority Ltd, based at the House of Commons in London. Suppliers with experience providing independent commercial assurance, reviewing programme commercial activity and offering credible advice to major public-sector or infrastructure programmes would be aligned with the nature of this requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 12 March 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract was awarded on 28 May 2026 to Efficio Limited. The tender’s estimated value was £250,000, while the awarded value was £500,000; these are separate published figures and should not be treated as an additional combined amount. The awarded contract runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2030. The award is active and covers the full commercial assurance requirement. The evaluation basis recorded for the procurement is the selection of a supplier through the existing framework call-off route, with the detailed award criteria applying through that framework and call-off process.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award provides a clear benchmark for competing for comparable commercial assurance work for the Restoration & Renewal Programme. A credible competitor would need demonstrable second-line assurance capability, including independent review of commercial strategy, governance, risk, procurement and contract management across a complex public programme. Relevant experience with major infrastructure, estates, government or similarly scrutinised programmes would strengthen credibility, particularly where advice must be evidence-based and capable of standing up to senior stakeholder and public-sector scrutiny. The requirement was considered suitable for SMEs, so a specialist consultancy with the right assurance expertise may be well placed to compete, either directly or through a framework position. Capacity to sustain a long-running client relationship and provide consistent, high-quality assurance would also be important.
