Summary of the contracting process

The Government Property Agency, located in Birmingham, United Kingdom, recently completed a procurement process titled "Provision of Cost Assurance Services". This opportunity, classified under the construction project management services industry, was intended to provide construction-related professional services focused on cost management for capital projects. The procurement followed a limited method, awarding the contract directly without prior publication, for continuity purposes. The contract, valued at £384,441.61, was awarded to the supplier identified by company number 02165592, headquartered in Leeds. The award process concluded with a signed contract on 1st April 2026.

This tender presents growth opportunities for companies specializing in construction project management services, especially those able to provide cost management support for capital projects. Businesses seeking to build relationships with government agencies or those experienced in fulfilling framework agreements might find opportunities in such procurement processes. Although this particular tender was directly awarded to T&T, understanding the nuances and requirements of such contracts can position businesses favourably for future opportunities in similar domains. Large-scale operations with existing capabilities in cost assurance and management would be particularly well-suited to compete in this sector.

Procurement Information

Cost assurance team required to be an outsourced function. Direct award to T&T because this can't be offered to any of our strategic partners as they all have project teams that produce information that the cost assurance team checks. Therefore we use T&T as they were the incumbent supplier and already assigned to the projects and were awarded via the framework agreement direct award procedure for continuity purposes.
