UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sovereign Network Group established a framework for Clerk of Works consultancy services, including construction supervision and building services consultancy. The work supports the client’s projects through on-site services and, where agreed with the project team, remote delivery. Lot 1 covers London inside the M25 and areas generally north and east of London, with scope potentially extending to Essex and nearby areas. Lot 2 covers locations outside the M25, generally in southern and western England, with possible extensions to Surrey, East and West Sussex, Kent and surrounding areas. The framework can be used by Sovereign Network Group and its affiliates, subsidiaries, joint ventures and special purpose vehicles. The services are divided between the two geographic lots, allowing suppliers to be appointed for one or both areas.

The procurement has been awarded under a selective competitive flexible procedure. Eleven organisations were appointed across the two lots, with ten suppliers listed for each: Lot 1 has Airey Miller, BPM Project Management (Quartet Homes), CalfordSeaden, Fulkers Bailey Russell, Hickton Quality Control, Keegans, Martin Arnold, Potter Raper, Rund Partnership and Silver DCC; Lot 2 has the same suppliers except BPM, and also Taylor Lewis. The award date was 1 October 2026. Lot 1 is valued at £2.4 million gross and Lot 2 at £600,000 gross. The framework contract period runs from 13 October 2026 to 30 September 2030. The framework allows up to 20 agreements; call-offs are generally competed through mini-competitions, with direct awards also possible. Evaluation weighted quality at 50%, social value at 10% and price at 40%.

This award demonstrates demand from Sovereign Network Group for Clerk of Works consultancy across housing and construction projects in London and southern and western England. A credible supplier would need to provide construction oversight and consultancy, with the ability to work at client locations and remotely when agreed. Geographic coverage matters: suppliers need to serve the relevant lot area, whether London and areas north and east of it or locations generally south and west of England. The appointed group includes established consultancy and project-management businesses, indicating a market suited to organisations able to respond to specific project requirements and submit detailed proposals and commercial offers at call-off stage. Work is not guaranteed under the framework, and future assignments may be awarded through mini-competition or direct award.
