Summary of the contracting process

Wirral Council procured project and cost management services for the Liscard Town Centre Public Realm Improvements. The requirement is construction consultancy, covering the management of project delivery and costs for public realm improvement works. The buyer is Wirral Council, a local authority, and the work is to be delivered in the Wirral area, centred on Liscard Town Centre. This is a professional services opportunity for consultancies that advise public-sector clients on construction projects, coordinate delivery, monitor budgets and provide cost management. It is relevant to firms with experience of public realm, town-centre regeneration or comparable local-authority improvement schemes, particularly where project management and commercial control are provided together.

The procurement has been awarded following a selective, below-threshold award under a framework, without a competitive process for this call-off. One completed lot was awarded to Turner & Townsend Project Management Limited on 27 July 2026 for £119,349.60 gross. The awarded service period was 10 August 2026 to 31 December 2027, with a possible three-month extension to 31 March 2028 subject to the client’s approval. A contract signature was scheduled for 7 August 2026. The associated contract was subsequently cancelled, with the final status recorded on 28 July 2026. The published data gives no reason for the cancellation. The award was for construction consultancy services under CPV 71530000.

Although this contract was awarded and then cancelled, it provides a clear indication of the type of consultancy Wirral Council sought for the Liscard public realm programme. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to combine project management and cost management, with the ability to support construction-related delivery from an informed commercial and technical standpoint. Relevant experience would include public realm works, town-centre improvements, regeneration schemes or similar local-authority projects. Firms should be able to demonstrate effective budget monitoring, cost advice, programme coordination, risk control and stakeholder management. Experience of working through public-sector frameworks and delivering professional services for complex construction programmes would also strengthen a supplier’s position when this buyer next requires comparable support.
