Summary of the contracting process

Coventry City Council appointed an external accredited service provider to carry out annual asset valuations of property recorded in the Council’s Asset Register. The valuations support incorporation of property values into the Council’s annual balance sheet and financial reporting. This is a professional property valuation and financial consultancy requirement, with related portfolio management, building consultancy and business management services. The work concerns Coventry City Council’s property assets and is delivered in Coventry, United Kingdom. It is relevant to firms providing accredited valuation services for public-sector property portfolios, particularly those able to produce valuation information suitable for formal financial reporting and maintain consistent annual asset-register assessments.

This completed open-procedure procurement had one lot and was evaluated equally on price and quality, each weighted at 50%. Seven bids reached the final stage, including three from SMEs. Lambert Smith Hampton Group Limited was selected on 25 August 2026. The award value is £308,375 excluding VAT and £370,050 including VAT. The award standstill period ends on 4 September 2026, with contract signature scheduled for 8 September 2026. The awarded contract period runs from 10 September 2026 to 9 September 2029, with one two-year extension option taking the expiry no later than 9 September 2031. The award remains pending completion of the standstill and signature arrangements.

This procurement demonstrates recurring demand from Coventry City Council for independently delivered, accredited property valuations that can support statutory financial reporting and the maintenance of a public asset register. A credible future competitor would need suitably accredited valuation professionals, robust methods for valuing varied council property assets, and the capacity to complete annual assessments consistently across the portfolio. Experience in public-sector valuation, property portfolio management, building consultancy and financial reporting would strengthen a supplier’s position. The equal weighting of price and quality indicates that a technically reliable service, clear evidence of quality and sound delivery arrangements matter alongside cost. The field attracted both larger firms and SME bidders, showing that relevant capability can be provided at different organisational scales.
