Summary of the contracting process

Be One Homes commissioned specialist surveying consultancy services for Thornbank High Rise. The requirement is classified as building surveying services and falls within the services category. The work is intended to support surveying activity relating to a high-rise residential building, making this relevant to consultancies that assess, inspect and advise on building condition, fabric, defects or related technical matters. Be One Homes, based in Bolton, is the buying organisation. The requirement was arranged as a single completed lot. The stated scope is focused rather than a broad property-management or construction contract, so firms should have a clear building-surveying offer and be able to apply it to a high-rise setting. The selected provider is Anderton Gables Limited, an SME based in Preston.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Be One Homes used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Anderton Gables Limited was selected for the single lot, with the award active. The award date is not separately recorded, while the contract was signed on 6 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 December 2026. Its value is £103,500 excluding VAT and £124,200 including VAT. The procurement used a direct, non-competitive route rather than an open tender. The available evaluation information is therefore reflected in the direct-award method, rather than a published comparison of competing bids or weighted criteria. The contract is active and the requirement concerns building surveying services for Thornbank High Rise.

This award identifies a defined market for specialist building surveying advice connected with a high-rise residential asset. Competitors seeking similar work from Be One Homes would need a credible building-surveying capability, with practitioners able to undertake specialist consultancy for high-rise buildings and provide technically reliable advice within a short, focused commission. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist consultancy rather than only by a large multidisciplinary contractor. Relevant firms should be able to demonstrate experience of comparable high-rise surveying assignments, sound technical reporting and the capacity to complete a discrete commission for a housing organisation. The buyer’s use of a below-threshold direct award also shows the route through which this type of smaller specialist requirement was placed.
