Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council is procuring a property management agent for multiple mixed-use blocks in Sheffield city centre. The portfolio includes commercial, residential, office and leisure assets. The required service covers estate management, compliance, tenant liaison, rent collection, service charge collection, statutory compliance, and qualitative and quantitative reporting. This is a property management services requirement, including commercial property management. Delivery is in Sheffield, making it relevant to firms with an established local operation or the capacity to manage city-centre property there. The council is replacing an existing contract, so the opportunity concerns ongoing management of an established mixed-use estate rather than a new development or construction project. The requirement is categorised as a service and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has reached tender: Sheffield City Council invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single-lot competition. Enquiries had to be submitted by 8 September 2026 at 11:00 UTC, and tenders were due by 16 September 2026 at 12 noon UK time. The evaluation is based on price at 50%, technical assessment at 40% and social value at 10%. The estimated value is £298,000 excluding VAT, or £357,600 including VAT. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2030, with an option to extend by 12 months, to a maximum extent date of 1 November 2030. Award is expected by 9 October 2026. Electronic submission in English is allowed.

This opportunity suits established property management agents able to manage a varied city-centre portfolio spanning commercial, residential, office and leisure premises. Strong candidates will need practical capability in estate and property management, statutory and wider compliance, tenant liaison, rent and service charge collection, and producing reliable qualitative and quantitative performance reports. The evaluation gives substantial importance to both technical quality and price, while social value forms a separate part of the assessment, so bidders should be able to explain their delivery approach and social value contribution clearly. The council identifies the requirement as suitable for SMEs. TUPE applies to the contract and the published amendment says the implications concern five employees; bidders should therefore be prepared to review the relevant employee information and account for the transfer in their mobilisation and service plans.
