UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office bought quantity surveying services for its headquarters WC refurbishment project. The work supports the refurbishment through cost and commercial management activity associated with the project. It is a services contract delivered for the Met Office in Exeter, where the organisation is based. The requirement is specifically for quantity surveying rather than construction, general building services or facilities management. It may therefore suit firms providing professional quantity surveying advice to public-sector clients, particularly those able to work alongside a refurbishment project and its delivery team. The named buying organisation is the Met Office, a central government public authority. The requirement was organised as a single package covering the quantity surveying services for the headquarters refurbishment.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was awarded to Tetra Tech Limited on 26 August 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and runs from 26 August 2026 to 30 May 2027. Its value is £25,000 excluding VAT and £30,000 including VAT. The procurement used one completed lot, covering the full requirement. The recorded service classification is quantity surveying services (CPV 71324000). The award is active and the contract is active. The published outcome identifies Tetra Tech Limited as the selected supplier. The process was conducted under the legal basis identified as the Procurement Act 2023.

This award shows the Met Office’s demand for specialist quantity surveying support on a headquarters refurbishment project, at a modest professional-services scale and through a limited competition route. A competing supplier would need demonstrable quantity surveying capability, with experience relevant to refurbishment projects and the ability to provide focused advice to a central government organisation. Credibility would also depend on managing the commercial aspects of refurbishment work effectively, working with project stakeholders and delivering the required service within a defined, relatively short contract period. Firms monitoring this buyer should consider whether they can evidence comparable public-sector or complex-building refurbishment work, clear cost and commercial controls, and the capacity to support the Met Office’s project environment.
