UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cornwall Council appointed professional support to independently assess project business cases submitted to the Kernow Industrial Growth Fund. This is a business-case assessment and advisory services requirement, within the broader business services category (CPV 79000000). The work concerns reviewing applications to the fund rather than delivering the funded industrial projects themselves. Cornwall Council is the buyer. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom; no more specific work location is identified. The procurement was arranged as a single lot, covering the assessment support requirement as a whole.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Stantec UK Ltd. The contract was signed on 26 July 2026 and runs from 27 July 2026 to 26 July 2028. Its value is £59,900 excluding VAT and £71,880 including VAT. The procurement was below the applicable threshold; the procedure is recorded as below threshold, with no further method specified. There was one lot, and the award is active. The requirement was for independent assessment of project business cases submitted to the Kernow Industrial Growth Fund. No award criteria or supplier eligibility conditions are recorded.

This award shows Cornwall Council has bought independent scrutiny of business cases seeking support from its Kernow Industrial Growth Fund. A credible competitor for this specific requirement would need to assess project proposals objectively and provide professional business-case review support, with the judgement and analytical capability to examine applications consistently. The appointed supplier, Stantec UK Ltd, is a large firm, indicating that an established professional services provider was selected, although the award does not set out any required company size, accreditations, named qualifications or minimum capacity. Suppliers with relevant experience assessing investment or funding proposals would therefore have a clear basis on which to demonstrate their suitability if this buyer’s business-case assessment requirement returns to market.
