UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dover District Council procured employers’ agent services for the Wallers Field project in Deal. The work falls within building consultancy services and supports the council’s delivery of this development. It is a professional services requirement rather than construction work or the supply of materials. The named buying organisation is Dover District Council, with the project location identified as Wallers Field, Deal. The appointed provider is a chartered surveying practice, indicating that the requirement is aimed at firms able to provide employers’ agent and building consultancy support for a council-led development. The procurement covers one service requirement and one delivery location.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Lawson Queay Chartered Surveyors, an SME. Dover District Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 18 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 1 April 2031. Its value is £9,950 excluding VAT and £11,940 including VAT. The award covers the single Wallers Field service requirement. The selected supplier is based in Uckfield. The published outcome identifies the service as building consultancy and the contract as active. The procurement record does not set out a separate scoring breakdown or weighting for the evaluation, so the commercial outcome is the appointment of Lawson Queay Chartered Surveyors under the limited competition route.

This award is useful evidence for building consultancies and chartered surveying practices tracking local-authority development work in Dover and Deal. The buyer has used a below-threshold limited competition for a focused employers’ agent requirement, showing a route suited to firms that can be considered directly for a defined professional service rather than a large construction contract. A credible competitor for similar work would need employers’ agent capability, building consultancy expertise and chartered surveying experience relevant to a council-led development. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist practice rather than only a large multidisciplinary consultancy. Firms should be able to demonstrate practical capacity to support the project throughout its multi-year service period.
