Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Metropolitan Police Service commissioned building consultancy and architectural professional services for a feasibility study on building upgrades. The work covers a feasibility survey and report assessing the deliverability and viability of potential upgrades. It is intended to support decisions about whether and how building improvement works can be taken forward. Delivery covers locations across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The requirement is therefore relevant to architectural practices, building consultants and multidisciplinary property advisers able to assess existing buildings and produce clear feasibility reports for a public-sector estate. The buyer is the Metropolitan Police Service, based at New Scotland Yard in London.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. It used a limited procedure: a direct award under the MPS Construction Professional Services Framework, without prior publication of a call for competition. The stated rationale was that the procurement fell outside the relevant directive’s scope. The requirement was evaluated on price. The single lot was recorded as cancelled, but an active award and active contract were published for HAMILTON ARCHITECTS LLP. The contract value is £37,100 including the stated currency of GBP, and it was signed on 3 August 2026. One bid was recorded for the lot. No contract duration or award date is stated in the procurement outcome.

This award demonstrates a defined demand from the Metropolitan Police Service for building-upgrade feasibility work rather than construction delivery itself. Competitors would need credible architectural and building consultancy capability, with experience surveying buildings, assessing the viability and deliverability of upgrade options, and turning findings into a practical feasibility report. The requirement covered a geographically broad English estate, so firms would benefit from the capacity to organise surveys and professional advice across multiple regions, whether through their own teams or an established delivery network. The chosen supplier was a large architectural practice, indicating that scale and the ability to support a public-sector framework route may be relevant. A competitive successor would also need to present clear, price-led proposals for comparable professional services.
