Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council appointed quantity surveying services for externally funded property improvement grants in Rhondda Cynon Taf. The work is a professional construction consultancy service supporting the assessment, costing and management of property improvement projects funded from external sources. Delivery is in the Rhondda Cynon Taf area, with the council based in Pontypridd. The requirement concerns services rather than construction works or the supply of materials, so it is relevant to quantity surveyors, construction cost consultants and firms experienced in grant-funded property improvement programmes. The procurement covered one requirement and was bought by the council as a sub-central public authority under Welsh devolved regulations.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Cumming Management Group UK Ltd was awarded the contract on 17 July 2026. The contract is valued at £120,947.50 excluding VAT and £145,136.98 including VAT. It was signed on 17 July 2026 and runs from 23 July 2026 to 22 July 2028, with a possible extension to 22 July 2029. The extension is for 12 months and depends on funding and performance. The contract includes an option for additional projects, with fixed rates applying if those projects are required. The award relates to construction consultancy services for the single requirement.

This procurement shows established demand from Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council for quantity surveying support linked to externally funded property improvement grants. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need quantity surveying expertise, strong construction cost consultancy capability and experience supporting property improvement projects from assessment through to delivery. Familiarity with grant-funded work would be commercially relevant, particularly where project scope and funding conditions need to be managed carefully. Suppliers should also be able to provide dependable pricing for a programme that may include additional projects, using fixed rates where required. Evidence of delivering comparable public-sector or property improvement programmes, managing multiple projects and maintaining performance over a multi-year service period would strengthen a competing proposition.
