Summary of the contracting process

Dacorum Borough Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Hemel Hempstead, has completed a procurement process titled "Structural Surveys for High Risk Buildings." The procurement was focused on conducting intrusive structural surveys on five high-risk buildings, including durability and chemical testing of concrete and other components. The initial procurement began with the contract being signed on the 15th of September 2025 and completed by the 31st of January 2026. This process was undertaken through a direct procurement method, which fell below the competition threshold, highlighting the specialised nature of the work. The supplier awarded the contract, OAKLEAF SURVEYING LTD, is based in Leicester and operates within the structural works category.

This tender presents significant opportunities for SMEs in the construction and surveying sectors, especially those with expertise in structural engineering and building safety. The procurement of services for high-risk structural surveys indicates potential future demand for specialised surveying services, offering a competitive edge to businesses capable of meeting stringent safety and durability standards. Companies similar to OAKLEAF SURVEYING LTD, which can deliver detailed structural assessments, may find such contracts a lucrative avenue for growth, capitalising on a focus on building safety and integrity within public infrastructure projects.
