UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Maiden Erlegh Trust is seeking a consultancy partner for strategic estates, asset management and capital project services across its portfolio of schools. Work may include estates strategy advice, feasibility studies, condition surveys, asset management support, and planning and managing capital projects. The supplier will work with school leaders, Trust executives, estates staff and other stakeholders to align projects with the Trust’s objectives, deliver them effectively and achieve value for money. Services will be commissioned as needed rather than as a single defined project. The delivery locations are in England, across the South East and South West. This is a professional services opportunity for consultancies working in school estates, property and infrastructure, building services or construction project management.

The Trust invited offers through an open procedure. The deadline for clarification enquiries was 1 October 2026 at 3pm, and bids were due by 29 October 2026 at midnight. The Trust expected to decide on the award by 25 November 2026. The contract was due to run from 4 January 2027 to 3 January 2030, with a possible 12-month extension. The estimated value is £250,000 excluding VAT (£300,000 including VAT). This is a single-lot procurement. Evaluation gives quality a 70% weighting and price 30%; the price response should set out percentage costs, RIBA stages and any additional costs, including expenses. Bids are submitted through Proactis, and suppliers must register there.

The opportunity suits consultancies with established expertise in education-sector estates and the ability to advise across strategy, asset management and capital delivery. Suppliers should be able to undertake feasibility work and condition surveys, support asset management initiatives, and manage projects from planning through delivery. The Trust expects a collaborative partner able to work with school leaders, executives, estates personnel and other stakeholders, while demonstrating a focus on value for money and alignment with organisational strategy. The work is commissioned as requirements arise across multiple schools, so providers need the capacity to respond to varied commissions rather than deliver one fixed project. The Trust identifies small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises as suitable bidders. The arrangement may also cover newly acquired schools and additional consultancy services.
