Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes City Council is procuring detailed, elemental condition surveys for 65 buildings in its corporate property portfolio, together with surveys of their grounds. The work covers architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services, with a building and facilities management element. Surveys are intended to establish the condition of the council’s corporate building stock and associated sites in Milton Keynes. This is a public-sector property surveying and technical inspection opportunity for firms able to assess multiple buildings systematically and produce detailed condition information for the council’s corporate landlord function. The requirement is for services rather than construction works, materials or routine facilities management. Suppliers should therefore focus on their building surveying, property condition assessment, engineering inspection and associated reporting capabilities.

The procurement has reached tender: Milton Keynes City Council invited offers through an open procedure. The deadline for enquiries was 28 August 2026 at 23:59, and offers were due by 14 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract is planned to run from 28 October 2026 to 27 October 2031. Its estimated value is £350,000 excluding VAT, or £420,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Offers are evaluated equally on quality and price, each weighted at 50%. The anticipated award decision date is 30 September 2026 at 23:59. Electronic submission is allowed in English through the council’s e-tendering system. The contract is subject to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and is above the applicable threshold.

This opportunity suits building surveying, property consultancy, engineering inspection and building condition assessment businesses with the capacity to organise and complete detailed surveys across a 65-building corporate estate and its grounds. Strong candidates are likely to have experience of elemental condition surveys for public, commercial or similarly varied building portfolios, and the ability to inspect building fabric, services and related assets in a consistent, auditable way. The requirement also favours suppliers able to manage a substantial survey programme, coordinate site activity and turn inspections into clear, detailed reports that support landlord and asset-management decisions. Firms combining surveying and engineering capability, or assembling those skills within a delivery team, may be well placed to address the full scope. The equal quality and price assessment makes demonstrable methodology and efficient delivery important.
