Summary of the contracting process

The Pension Protection Fund commissioned project management consultancy services for an accommodation project covering two office projects with leases approaching renewal. The work involves analysing options for each office, preparing recommendations for the organisation’s executives to agree an approach, and supporting delivery of the agreed outcomes. The project manager is expected to work with the Pension Protection Fund’s internal business teams and any external supplier appointed to carry out related work. Delivery covers Croydon and the wider London area. This is a services requirement suited to consultancy and professional services businesses experienced in property-related project management, workplace or accommodation strategy, lease-related analysis, and coordinating multiple stakeholders and suppliers.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One award was made to Turner & Townsend Limited, and the contract was signed on 8 May 2026. The contract value is £149,237 excluding tax, or £179,085 including tax. The contract period runs from 11 May 2026 to 29 January 2027, with an option to extend for up to five months, allowing an extension to 30 June 2027. The procurement was evaluated and concluded as a single requirement covering the project management service. The award remains active and the contract is active; the selected supplier is Turner & Townsend Limited.

This procurement indicates demand from the Pension Protection Fund for specialist accommodation project management linked to office lease renewals. A credible future competitor would need to assess property and lease options, turn analysis into clear recommendations for senior decision-makers, and support implementation after an approach is agreed. The requirement also favours a consultancy able to operate across internal business functions while coordinating external specialists commissioned for related work. Relevant capability includes structured options appraisal, executive-level reporting, programme and project management, stakeholder engagement, and supplier coordination. Businesses with experience managing office accommodation or workplace change should consider how they would demonstrate practical delivery control, commercial understanding of leases, and the capacity to manage two related projects for this buyer.
