Summary of the contracting process

North Lanarkshire Council has completed a public procurement process for the property management of Cumbernauld Town Centre, covering the period from 2024 to 2025. This contract focuses on commercial property management services and is part of the Council's initiative to regenerate the area. The awarded contract under the procurement ID NLC-NTP-24-010 was granted to Belgate Estates Limited on 18 July 2024 and involves managing two interconnected shopping centres in Cumbernauld, aiming to maximise revenue and reduce overheads in preparation for potential demolition and redevelopment. The procurement process was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the specific technical requirements and continuity of service needed.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in property management, particularly those experienced in handling large commercial properties with complex lease structures. Companies offering efficient operational management, maintenance services, and tenant relations are well-suited for such contracts. By aligning with North Lanarkshire Council's long-term redevelopment plans, businesses can establish their presence in the public sector and engage in ongoing urban regeneration projects, which could lead to further contracting opportunities in similar large-scale property management schemes.

Notice Title

Cumbernauld Town Centre - Property Management 2024 - 2025

Notice Description

North Lanarkshire Council is looking to transform Cumbernauld by regenerating its town centre from a sterile transport corridor to a place where people can move freely, thereby integrating and connecting the developments on either side of Central Way to form a traditional high street for the first time in the town's development. To kick start this transformational change, the Council has acquired the two adjoined shopping centres occupying an extensive site in the middle of Cumbernauld town centre - 'The Centre Cumbernauld and Cumbernauld Shopping Centre' (known as 'The Centre Cumbernauld' (TCC)). Following the acquisition of TCC in June 2023, there was a requirement to have the facility managed and operated as efficiently as possible to maximise revenue and reduce overhead costs until existing leaseholds expire or can be ended, and vacant possession achieved prior to planned complete or phased demolition of the building. Upon acquisition of TCC, the Council novated two historic management contracts from the previous owner on a short-term basis up to 12 months to enable a smooth operating transition and to minimise disruption to existing tenants. These contracts are regarded as the "Asset Manager" and "Property Manager". These 12-month contracts have been reprocured for a period of 12 months, with an extension period of 3 months, to allow for the procurement of longer term management solution.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The Property Manager is concerned with the daily operation of the centre including staffing, maintenance, security, collection of rents, service charge etc. It demands and collects rental and service charges on behalf of the landlord together with any arrears that fall due. With over 150 leases in place, the benefits of retaining continuity in service are considerable to enable a smooth operation of the centre

Procurement Information

The services required are currently provided within Cumbernauld Town Centre by a private organisations to the Council. Following acquisition of Cumbernauld Town Centre, the Council felt at the time that it would be in a position to procure a longer term arrangement by the time the existing arrangement concludes on 30 June 2024. However, given the uniqueness of the services required, the amount of time and learning required to fully understand the service provision (amongst other operation issues) was underestimated and as a result the Council has not been able to procure a longer term arrangement.
