UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Crown Estate Scotland commissioned total cost management services for its Whitehill and Applegirth Estates. The work covers land and property assets for which Crown Estate Scotland retains responsibility for repairs and maintenance. The requirement is centred on surveying services across the estates, supporting the assessment and management of property and land assets. Delivery is in Scotland. The buying organisation is Crown Estate Scotland, a Scottish public authority based in Edinburgh. This is a property and land surveying opportunity rather than a construction delivery contract: its focus is professional services associated with understanding assets, liabilities and maintenance requirements across a public estate. The project is titled Total Cost Management Phase 4 for the Applegirth and Whitehill Estates.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a competitive mini-competition under the Estate Management Services Framework. The award was made to Watts Group Limited on 13 July 2026. The awarded value is £720,000, with a gross value of £864,000, both in GBP. The contract period runs from 27 July 2026 to 23 July 2027. The procurement used a selective procedure through the framework, with one completed lot. The award is recorded as active, and a contract signature was scheduled for 27 July 2026. The evaluation basis is the competitive process conducted under the framework; the published outcome does not set out separate evaluation weightings or criteria.

This award indicates established demand from Crown Estate Scotland for specialist surveying and total cost management across rural estate land and property assets with ongoing repair and maintenance liabilities. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this type would need credible experience in surveying public or large multi-asset estates, assessing property condition and maintenance obligations, and turning survey findings into structured cost and asset-management information. Capability across both land and buildings would be relevant, as would the capacity to coordinate work across geographically distributed Scottish estate assets. Experience of working within an estate management services framework, running a competitive call-off and delivering professional advice to a public-sector client would strengthen a supplier’s position when this requirement next reaches the market.
