Summary of the contracting process

Crown Commercial Service procured Estate Management Services 2, a multi-lot framework for central government departments and wider UK public-sector bodies, including local authorities, health, police, fire and rescue, education, devolved administrations, charities and the NHS. The services cover total estate management; property management; agency and lease management; surveying and strategic advice; valuation and compulsory purchase orders; business rating services; workplace services performance partnership; and advice for privately financed estates. The PFI lots include technical and strategic advice, surveying, fire safety and audit, and specialist commercial and financial advice. Work may be delivered across the UK, Crown Dependencies, overseas territories and other listed international public-sector locations. The scope combines property, surveying, valuation, facilities, engineering, commercial and financial advisory work.

This completed procurement used an open procedure to establish an open framework, with call-offs awarded with or without reopening competition. The framework’s estimated value is £650m excluding VAT (£780m including VAT). The tender deadline was 12 May 2025, the enquiry deadline was 29 April 2025, and the award period ended on 20 October 2025. Eleven lots were awarded to multiple suppliers, including major property and professional-services firms such as CBRE, Savills, JLL, Avison Young, AECOM, Arcadis, Capita, Cushman & Wakefield and many specialist SMEs. Signed contracts began on 20 November 2025 and run to 19 November 2029. Individual contract values range from £9.75m to £260m excluding VAT, depending on the lot. Evaluation weighted lot-specific quality 70%, continuous improvement 20%, and economic, environmental, equal-opportunity and wellbeing outcomes 10%.

This award demonstrates sustained public-sector demand for broad property and estate expertise, from operational estate management and workplace coordination to surveying, valuation, rating appeals, PFI assurance, fire safety and commercial advice. Suppliers well placed for comparable work are property consultancies, chartered surveyors, facilities and workplace-management providers, engineering and programme-management firms, valuation specialists, and commercial, financial or infrastructure advisers. The successful supplier pool includes both large organisations and SMEs, indicating that credible specialist capacity can be relevant alongside national coverage. Competitors would need demonstrable legal, financial and technical capability, with the ability to support central and wider public-sector estates across multiple jurisdictions. Strong evidence of delivery in the chosen discipline, robust management information, technical due diligence, continuous improvement and measurable social, environmental and wellbeing outcomes would support a credible future response.
