Summary of the contracting process

Boston Borough Council commissioned a professional services study of workspace, together with an investment strategy. The work is research and consultancy: assessing workspace needs and developing an investment approach for the council. The award classifies the service as research and development consultancy (CPV 73200000). The procurement names Boston Borough Council as the buyer; Public Sector Partnership Services Ltd assisted with procurement. The contracting information does not identify a delivery address or a more detailed geographical scope, so the stated place associated with the buyer is Boston.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to BE Ltd. It was signed on 14 October 2026. The contract runs from 15 October to 23 December 2026. Its value is £34,700 excluding VAT and £41,640 including VAT. The procurement was described as below threshold, with the specific method recorded as unknown. It was arranged as one lot, covering the workspace study and investment strategy. No award criteria or eligibility requirements are recorded in the contracting information. The award is active and the contract is active.

This award shows demand from Boston Borough Council for professional advice that combines workspace research with investment strategy. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate credible research and consultancy capability, including the ability to assess workspace needs and turn findings into a practical investment approach. The buyer selected BE Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise, showing that this requirement was delivered by an SME rather than only a large consultancy. A supplier with relevant experience in workspace studies and public-sector investment planning would be well placed to make a credible case for similar work. The scale evidenced here is a focused, short-duration professional services assignment, rather than a major construction or long-term delivery contract.
