UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Oxford City Council procured agency recruitment for an Asset Data Building Surveyor, described as its second GFP post. The requirement was for recruitment services to support the council in filling a building surveying role focused on asset data. The work was for Oxford City Council and was to be delivered in Oxford, serving the council’s asset-data and building-surveying needs. The procurement was arranged as a single lot. This is a specialist staffing requirement rather than a purchase of surveying works or a general property service: the supplier’s role was to recruit for the specified agency post.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to GRAHAM ROSE LIMITED. Oxford City Council signed the contract on 4 October 2026, with a contract period running from 4 October 2026 to 7 April 2028. The contract value is £216,000 including VAT. It was a below-threshold procurement; the recorded procurement method is not further defined. The process covered one lot, and the award is active. The published information does not set out separate award-scoring criteria or detailed eligibility conditions, so the stated outcome is the selection of GRAHAM ROSE LIMITED for the agency recruitment requirement.

For recruitment firms competing for this buyer’s future Asset Data Building Surveyor requirement, the award demonstrates demand for specialist agency recruitment supporting Oxford City Council’s property and asset-data function. A credible competitor would need to understand the building surveying talent market and be able to source candidates whose experience fits asset data work, rather than relying on a broad, undifferentiated recruitment offer. The selected supplier is a small and medium-sized enterprise, showing that a firm of this scale has delivered the requirement; the procurement therefore provides a relevant benchmark for recruitment businesses with suitable specialist networks and the capacity to serve a council-level assignment. The opportunity is specifically recruitment for an agency building surveyor post, not the delivery of surveying services itself.
