UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham City Council has entered into a direct procurement process titled "Smithfield Commercial Advice," focusing on providing the Council with commercial advice for varying the existing Smithfield contract. This falls under the "Services" industry category, specifically targeting infrastructure works consultancy services. The procurement process has reached the award stage, and a contract was signed with CUSHMAN & WAKEFIELD DEBENHAM TIE LEUNG LIMITED on 8th April 2026, with the agreement active from then until 1st March 2028. The contract has a gross value of £120,000. This procurement method was below the threshold and proceeded without competition. The primary location of delivery is within the UKG region, which encompasses Birmingham.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in providing commercial and consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in infrastructure advisory. Large enterprises, similar to the awarded supplier, may find such contracts particularly beneficial for business growth due to their capacity to deliver on substantial contractual responsibilities. Engaging in these contracts can enhance a company's portfolio and visibility within the public sector, offering avenues for future collaborations. Though this specific contract was awarded directly, understanding this market sector's expertise and capacity requirements can position smaller or differently-paced firms to compete in other similar public tenders.
