Summary of the contracting process

Thurrock Council, a sub-central government public authority located in Grays, UK, has completed a procurement process for the role of Employer's Agent in a Modular Building Development project. The contracting process, identified by the tender ID PS/2025/079, followed a limited competition method due to being below threshold. The contract, awarded to BPM Project Management (Quartet Homes) Ltd, with an anticipated end date of 26th July 2027 and possible extensions, involves architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services. The procurement, classified under the services category, aligns with the legal basis set out by the UKPGA 2023/54 legislation.

This tender offers significant business growth prospects for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the architectural and engineering sectors, particularly those adept in modular construction. As the project is centred around innovative building methods, companies specializing in modular technology stand to benefit greatly. The contract, valued at GBP 33,300 gross and with potential extensions, provides a sustained partnership opportunity, ideal for SMEs aiming to enhance their portfolio in public sector contracts. Businesses with expertise in cost consultancy and project management would find this opportunity especially appealing, as it supports involvement in forward-thinking construction ventures within the UK housing sector.
