Summary of the contracting process

West Lancashire Borough Council is procuring commercial property marketing and letting agency services for Evergreen Business Park in Skelmersdale. The appointed provider will develop and implement a marketing strategy for the business park, conduct property viewings, respond to prospective occupier enquiries and deliver other services described in the specification. This is a property and real estate services requirement, covering activity at the business park in Skelmersdale. The council is the public-sector buyer. The work is categorised as real estate services and is a services contract rather than a works or goods supply. The requirement is focused on commercial property agency expertise, tenant and occupier engagement, and securing lettings for the business park.

The procurement reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Clarification enquiries had to be submitted by 27 August 2026 at 14:00, and tenders had to be submitted electronically by 4 September 2026 at 14:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 26 October 2026 to 25 October 2028. The published gross value is £0. The single requirement is evaluated on 70% price and 30% quality. Electronic submission is permitted, with tenders submitted through The Chest. The opportunity is a single-lot procurement, and the lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The stated procurement category is services and the competition is below the relevant threshold.

This opportunity suits a commercial property agency with experience marketing business parks and securing occupiers for commercial premises. The successful provider must hold RICS accreditation and be able to plan and deliver a structured property marketing strategy. Relevant capability includes presenting and promoting available space, managing prospective tenant enquiries, arranging and conducting viewings, and supporting the letting process. Suppliers should also be able to provide the additional agency services required by the specification, alongside clear evidence of quality in delivery. The requirement is marked as suitable for SMEs, so it may be viable for an established specialist agency or a smaller RICS-accredited property firm with the necessary capacity, local commercial property knowledge and experience managing enquiries and viewings.
