Summary of the contracting process

Clarion Housing Property Development Service Limited commissioned mechanical, electrical, plumbing and heating consultancy for the Bilton Estate in Rugby. The work covers RIBA Stages 1 to 3, meaning early design development through to developed design, for a housing estate project. The procurement is for professional services rather than construction or equipment supply. The named requirement is MEPH consultancy, with mechanical engineering services identified as the relevant classification. Delivery is associated with Bilton Estate, Rugby, while the buyer is based in London. This is a focused consultancy commission for firms able to support housing development design at the early project stages and coordinate the relevant building-services disciplines.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It comprised one completed lot. Couch Perry & Wilkes LLP was selected as the supplier, and the contract was signed on 19 June 2026. The active contract runs from 22 June 2026 to 22 June 2027, with a gross value of £57,960 including applicable taxes. The contract is for the Bilton Estate, Rugby MEPH consultancy requirement and covers the defined RIBA Stages 1 to 3 scope. The process used a limited procurement method rather than an open competition, so the outcome provides a reference point for the scale and route used by Clarion Housing Property Development Service Limited for this type of specialist consultancy.

This procurement shows that Clarion Housing Property Development Service Limited uses specialist building-services consultants for early-stage housing-estate design, with mechanical engineering forming part of the requirement. A credible competing supplier would need to demonstrate the technical ability to provide MEPH consultancy across RIBA Stages 1 to 3, contribute to project design development and coordinate mechanical, electrical, plumbing and heating considerations at an early design stage. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable specialist consultancy rather than only a large multidisciplinary organisation. Firms tracking Clarion’s housing development activity can use this commission as a benchmark for the type of expertise and focused consultancy capability required.
