Summary of the contracting process

Tees Valley Combined Authority procured property management services for its own assets and those of MDC and HDC. The requirement is for ad hoc support rather than a stated single project, covering property management of real estate on a fee or contract basis. The work is associated with assets in the Tees Valley and wider North East England area, while the buying authority is based at Teesside International Airport near Darlington. This is a public-sector property services opportunity for firms that can provide practical, responsive support across a portfolio of public assets. The procurement used the Government Commercial Agency Estate (property) Management Services 2 framework, specifically Lot 2, indicating that the requirement was channelled through an established property management services route.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Tees Valley Combined Authority used a below-threshold procedure with the procurement method recorded as unknown, through Lot 2 of the Government Commercial Agency Estate (property) Management Services 2 framework. Sanderson Weatherall LLP was awarded the contract, and the contract was signed on 11 August 2026. The contract period runs from 12 August 2026 to 11 August 2027, with an option to extend for one year to a maximum end date of 11 August 2028. The contract value is £30,000 excluding VAT and £36,000 including VAT. One lot was completed and one supplier was selected. The award covers property management services for the identified Tees Valley assets.

This procurement shows demand from Tees Valley Combined Authority for flexible property management support across public-sector assets, rather than only for a fixed construction or facilities project. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable property management capability, experience of advising on or managing real estate assets, and the capacity to respond to ad hoc instructions across more than one public-sector asset owner. Familiarity with public-sector governance, reporting, commercial property issues and fee- or contract-based service delivery would strengthen its position. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can suit a specialist property consultancy rather than only a large national provider. Access to the same estate management framework route would also be commercially relevant.
