Summary of the contracting process

Coventry City Council has successfully completed a procurement process titled 'COV - 24376 - Seek new tenants and provide recommendations' to enhance non-residential property services by seeking new tenants and offering advisory services on re-gears, renewals, and tenant mix. The procurement, categorised under services and occurring within the Coventry area in the UK, was executed using a direct, below-threshold method without competition. The process advanced to the award stage, with the contract being signed on 17th October 2025. The contract, valued at £120,000 gross, commenced on 19th October 2025 and is scheduled to conclude on 18th October 2026.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in non-residential property services, particularly those capable of providing tailored advice and property management solutions. As the contract was awarded to Creative Retail, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Birmingham, it demonstrates potential for SMEs in the industry to engage in sub-central government projects. Businesses with expertise in tenant management and property consultancy would be well-positioned to compete in similar procurement processes, as they can leverage their niche capabilities to fulfil governmental and public authority requirements efficiently.
