Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Croydon is engaging in a procurement process for multi-disciplinary consultants to act as expert witnesses, classified as a service within the real estate sector. The procurement method used was "direct," falling below the competition threshold, which allowed for a streamlined approach. This contract was awarded on 21st May 2025 and is managed by Turner & Townsend alinea. Although the contract is set to run from 2nd July 2025 to 30th September 2025, the process is already in the award stage. The procurement is based in Croydon, located in the UKI62 region of the United Kingdom, and aligns with the legal basis outlined in UKPGA 2023/54.

Businesses in the consultancy and real estate sectors, particularly those with expertise in delivering expert witness services, can find opportunities for growth from this contract. Significant opportunities exist for large-scale service providers due to the niche skill set required. Additionally, organisations capable of providing comprehensive consultancy services across multidisciplinary domains will be well-positioned to compete in similar future procurements. The successful procurement by Turner & Townsend alinea underlines their proficiency in meeting the requirements set by sub-central government authorities, such as the London Borough of Croydon.
