Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Derby College Group focused on acquiring services for conducting condition surveys across various campuses. Engaging in an open competition below the threshold, it sought expert surveying services necessary for developing strategic estate plans. Initially tendered on 3 October 2025, the process progressed through active phases including enquiry, with the tender period concluding on 7 November 2025. Located in Derby, UK, this public authority of sub-central government aimed to respond promptly to campus needs by no later than 31 July 2026. The procurement falls under the "services" category involving architectural and building-surveying services. For potential suppliers, registration through the education portal was imperative for the tender submission.

This tender presented substantial opportunities for firms specialising in architectural and building surveying, particularly those capable of performing detailed condition assessments of building fabric and external areas. SMEs like Hartnell Taylor Cook LLP, previously awarded for similar services, reflect businesses suitable for such contracts. With a landscape focused on qualitative service delivery in support of estate strategies, companies providing detailed survey work would find lucrative expansion opportunities. Additionally, the investment of £100,000 estimated for the service underlines a robust demand for precision and expertise, making it an ideal prospect for businesses looking to specialise in public infrastructure diagnostics within the UK.
