Summary of the contracting process

Midland Heart Limited commissioned building surveying services for its properties across England. The requirement covered two separate service areas: energy performance certificate (EPC) surveys, including lodging the resulting EPCs, and asbestos surveys. The work is classified as building surveying services (CPV 71315300). The buyer is a housing provider based in Birmingham. Both service areas were suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and suppliers could seek one or both areas. The selected providers were Tersus Consultancy Limited for asbestos surveys and BSN Consultancy Ltd for EPC surveys. The requirement therefore suits surveying businesses able to deliver property inspection and reporting services across a broad geographic area, with the relevant technical capability for either energy performance or asbestos work.

The procurement has been awarded following an above-threshold open competitive flexible procedure. The tender could include invitations to tender, presentations, demonstrations, clarifications and negotiation. The tender deadline was 6 March 2026 at 12:00, enquiries closed on 27 February 2026, and the intended award period ended on 1 April 2026. The EPC service was awarded to BSN Consultancy Ltd on 21 August 2026 for £750,000 excluding VAT (£900,000 including VAT), from 13 September 2026 to 12 September 2031, with one optional five-year extension. The asbestos service was awarded to Tersus Consultancy Limited on 22 May 2026 for £1,666,666.66 excluding VAT (£2,000,000 including VAT), from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2031, also with one optional five-year extension. Price carried 40% and quality 60%, with pass/fail participation and specification requirements.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from Midland Heart for outsourced surveying across a large housing property portfolio. A credible future competitor would need to provide reliable nationwide delivery across England, manage inspection programmes at scale and produce accurate, compliant reports and records. EPC specialists would need capability in conducting energy performance surveys and lodging certificates; asbestos specialists would need the competence and systems to survey, assess and report asbestos risks. Strong quality assurance would matter because technical compliance and quality together carried more weight than price. The process also used presentations, demonstrations and possible dialogue or negotiation, so suppliers would benefit from being able to explain their methods, evidence service quality and manage client-facing evaluation. Eight EPC bids reached the final stage, including seven from SMEs, indicating competition from smaller specialist providers.
