Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield procured specialist Registered Building Inspector resource to support its Building Control service. The requirement is a professional service rather than construction work: providing access to appropriately registered building inspection expertise for the council’s service. The buying organisation is based in Wakefield, and the service is delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement is associated with recruitment services, indicating that the council obtained the resource through a supplier providing specialist personnel or recruitment support. This opportunity is relevant to organisations able to supply registered building inspectors, specialist built-environment professionals or recruitment services focused on building control and regulatory expertise.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold procedure. It was divided into one lot. G2V Recruitment Group Limited was selected as supplier, and the contract was signed on 21 July 2026. The active contract runs from 11 August 2026 to 10 February 2027. Its gross value is £153,920 including applicable taxes, and it is below the relevant threshold. The award covers recruitment services linked to the Registered Building Inspector requirement. The contracting authority is The Council of the City of Wakefield. The published outcome identifies one active award and one active contract for the requirement.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Wakefield’s Building Control service for externally supplied Registered Building Inspector expertise. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would need access to suitably registered building inspectors and the ability to provide specialist regulatory and technical resource to a local authority. Recruitment businesses with established networks in building control, construction regulation and related built-environment professions may be credible competitors, particularly where they can identify and mobilise qualified personnel quickly. Direct providers with capacity to deliver registered inspection expertise could also be relevant. A future competitor would need to understand local-authority Building Control requirements and demonstrate dependable access to appropriately qualified specialist staff through a professional services or recruitment model.
