Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire West and Chester Council procured client-side quantity surveying and employer’s agent services for the Frodsham LC construction project. The work sits within construction, engineering and inspection services and supports the council in managing the project from the client side. The named project is in Frodsham.

The procurement is complete and MAKE (NW) LIMITED was selected. The contract was signed on 12 October 2026 and runs from 15 October 2026 to 31 December 2028. Its value is £60,000 including VAT. The council used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The process comprised one lot; no evaluation basis is recorded in the available procurement information.

For firms providing client-side quantity surveying and employer’s agent services, this award shows Cheshire West and Chester Council’s demand for professional support on a local construction project. A credible competitor would need to deliver both cost and commercial oversight through quantity surveying and represent the client’s interests as employer’s agent. Relevant experience managing construction projects and the capacity to support the work across the contract period would be commercially pertinent. The council used a direct award without competition for this procurement, rather than a competitive selection process.
