Summary of the contracting process

Worcestershire County Council commissioned facilities management consultancy services covering M&E compliance, project delivery, contract mobilisation, support for maintained schools, and the maintenance of critical operational and statutory functions. The work provides specialist expertise and resource to support the council’s facilities management responsibilities and ongoing compliance requirements. Delivery is for the council’s estate in Worcestershire, under the council’s public authority operations. The requirement is service-based rather than for construction, equipment supply or routine facilities management delivery. It is relevant to facilities management consultancies with experience across building services compliance, capital or maintenance project delivery, mobilisation, school estates and statutory operational requirements. The scope also suits providers able to support public-sector property and asset portfolios where continuity and detailed knowledge of existing arrangements are important.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct award to MYFM LTD. The direct award was justified on the basis that changing supplier could create incompatible services and disproportionate technical or operational difficulties, while the incumbent’s specialist knowledge supports continuity and reduces service-disruption risk. The award date was 22 July 2026. The contract period is 5 August 2026 to 31 March 2028, with a scheduled signature date of 5 August 2026. The single lot was awarded at £354,766 excluding VAT, or £425,719.20 including VAT. The award is marked pending, with a standstill period ending on 4 August 2026. The evaluation basis was the direct-award rationale rather than a competitive tender process.

This award shows sustained demand from Worcestershire County Council for specialist facilities management consultancy across compliance, projects, mobilisation, maintained schools and critical statutory operations. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable technical expertise in mechanical and electrical compliance, strong project delivery capability and experience mobilising or transitioning facilities management services. Knowledge of public-sector estates, school property and statutory operational responsibilities would be particularly relevant. Suppliers should be able to provide senior specialist resource that can address gaps without disrupting established services, understand an existing estate and its operational history, and maintain compliance through regulatory or legislative change. The awarded supplier is an SME, indicating that a focused specialist consultancy can meet this type of requirement without being a large national facilities management provider.
