UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of London commissioned sustainability and Whole Life Carbon Assessment consultancy services. The work covers developing a Whole Life Carbon Assessment Framework to support the City of London’s Sustainability Design Standard, together with delivering pilot Whole Life-cycle Carbon Assessments. This is a professional advisory and technical assessment requirement, relevant to consultancies working across embodied carbon, operational carbon, building sustainability, carbon modelling and design standards. The services are delivered for the City of London, with the procurement owned by The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London. The requirement is a single service package rather than a multi-lot programme, and its purpose is to help establish practical whole-life carbon guidance and test its application through pilot assessments.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. Elliott Wood Partnership Ltd was selected for the service package. The contract was signed on 21 June 2026 and runs from 22 June 2026 to 26 February 2027. Its gross value is £88,155. The award is active and the contract is active. Evaluation details recorded for the procurement identify financial consultancy services, although the substantive requirement concerns sustainability and whole-life carbon assessment consultancy. The process was run under the legal basis of the Procurement Act 2023. This outcome indicates that the City of London used a proportionate competitive route for a focused consultancy commission, with the selected supplier responsible for both framework development and pilot assessment delivery.

This procurement demonstrates demand from the City of London for specialist advisers able to turn whole-life carbon policy into usable standards, guidance and assessed projects. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrated expertise in whole-life carbon assessment across building design and construction, including the ability to develop assessment frameworks, define practical methodologies and apply them consistently to pilot schemes. Useful capability would include sustainability strategy, carbon data analysis, technical reporting and translating complex results into guidance that designers, developers and project teams can use. The requirement also suits a consultancy able to manage policy development and hands-on assessment work within one commission, provide experienced multidisciplinary staff and produce clear outputs for a public-sector client.
