Summary of the contracting process

Tees Valley Combined Authority procured ad hoc property management support for assets belonging to the authority and its associated organisations, Middlesbrough Council and Hartlepool Borough Council. The requirement covers property management services for real estate on a fee or contract basis, supporting the management of public-sector property assets across the Tees Valley area. The work sits within the Government Commercial Agency Estate (Property) Management Services 2 framework, Lot 2. The buyer is a sub-central public authority based in Darlington. This requirement is relevant to property consultancies, surveying practices and estate management firms able to provide flexible, call-off support for a varied public-sector property portfolio and to work with a combined authority and its partner councils.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Sanderson Weatherall LLP on 3 August 2026. It was a below-threshold procurement using the Government Commercial Agency Estate (Property) Management Services 2 framework, Lot 2. The award value is £30,000 excluding VAT (£36,000 including VAT). The contract runs from 10 August 2026 to 9 August 2027, with one optional 12-month extension available, giving a maximum extent date of 9 August 2028. A future contract signature was scheduled for 7 August 2026. There was one completed lot and one active award. The published information does not set out separate scoring weightings or evaluation criteria.

This award demonstrates demand from Tees Valley Combined Authority for flexible, ad hoc property management support across assets held by the authority and its council partners. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical estate and property management capability, experience handling public-sector or multi-owner property portfolios, and the ability to respond to changing instructions rather than deliver only a fixed project. Familiarity with the Government Commercial Agency Estate (Property) Management Services 2 framework, particularly its property management services route, would be commercially relevant. The successful supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist practice rather than only a large national provider. Firms should be able to coordinate with a combined authority and local councils across the Tees Valley.
