Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Croydon has completed a procurement process for the provision of multi-disciplinary consultants acting as expert witnesses. The contract was awarded to Time Retail Partners Ltd on 2nd July 2025. Situated in Croydon, this buying organisation, part of a sub-central public authority, identified real estate services as the industry category. The procurement method chosen was direct and conducted without competition, being below threshold. Key milestones indicate that the contract period starts on 2nd July 2025 and ends on 30th September 2026, spanning the UKI62 region in the United Kingdom.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for consulting firms specialising in real estate services, facilitating business growth in a niche market without the typical competitive constraints. Firms with the relevant expertise and capabilities in delivering consultancy services to public authorities could benefit from establishing pivotal relationships and securing similar contracts in the future. Although the competition was omitted in this instance, companies with similar service offerings and a proficient understanding of legal aspects as expert witnesses may find themselves well-positioned to explore such opportunities in the tender process.
