UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority is in the planning stage of a procurement process for a project titled "South Yorkshire Private Sector Stock Condition Database". This initiative, classified under building surveying services, is intended to develop a comprehensive database that will serve as an evidence base to guide future policy and resource allocation for improving private housing standards. The procurement is being managed from Sheffield, United Kingdom, under the classification of a public authority - sub-central government. The authority aims to start the contract on May 15, 2026, with completion expected by January 15, 2027. Key stakeholders include members of the South Yorkshire Private Rented Sector Reference Group. The procurement's financial value is estimated at £195,000 with a gross amount of £234,000, and a future notice date has been set for April 30, 2026. A preliminary market engagement notice has been issued, although no formal market engagement event is scheduled.

This procurement process provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in building surveying services, particularly those with expertise in database development and housing condition assessments. Companies that can demonstrate proficiency in collaborating with public bodies and navigating policy frameworks will be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Additionally, firms that have experience in leveraging data to inform policy and resource decisions in the housing sector could benefit from the project's focus on informing future practice and system improvements. Businesses seeking to expand their footprint in the public sector and those capable of delivering above-threshold services will find this tender particularly advantageous. It presents an opportunity to contribute to regional housing standards improvement, potentially opening avenues for longer-term engagement in similar initiatives.
