Summary of the contracting process

Spelthorne Borough Council commissioned a technical vendor due diligence survey of a number of assets in its investment portfolio. The requirement is for building surveying services, covering the technical assessment of property assets to support the Council’s investment portfolio management. The buyer is Spelthorne Borough Council, based at its Council Offices in Staines-upon-Thames. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The appointed service is a specialist professional consultancy rather than construction, maintenance or general facilities management work. It is relevant to building surveyors, property consultancies and other firms with the technical capability to inspect and report on multiple investment assets for a public-sector owner.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to KNIGHT FRANK LLP. The award is active and the contract is active. The award date was 22 July 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract value is £78,260 excluding VAT (£93,912 including VAT). The contract period runs from 28 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The stated procurement category is services, with building surveying services as the relevant classification. The quotation exercise sought suitably qualified and experienced suppliers for technical vendor due diligence across the Council’s investment portfolio assets.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Spelthorne Borough Council for specialist technical due diligence on investment portfolio assets. A credible future competitor would need building surveying expertise, experience assessing property assets and the ability to produce reliable technical due diligence reports for a public-sector investment owner. The requirement is suited to an established property consultancy or surveying practice able to coordinate work across a number of assets and manage the associated professional workload. Firms should be able to evidence suitably qualified and experienced personnel, sound inspection and reporting processes, and an understanding of how technical property findings support investment decisions. Knight Frank’s appointment indicates that the Council sought a specialist, professional surveying provider rather than a general building contractor.
