The City routinely appoints numerous cost consultants for its construction projects and programmes, and considers the specification, form of contract, commercial model and procurement approach to be well defined and consistent with its approach to appointing such services. In addition the supply market for cost consultancy services is believed to be healthy and there is likely to be a good level of market interest in this contract. The Barbican Renewal Programme has also attracted a high level of market interest from suppliers for all contracts to date."
