Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees buys professional valuation services for its land and property portfolio. The work covers operational land and buildings as well as investment assets, supporting the Council’s financial reporting and accounting. It forms part of a five-year rolling programme to value Council-owned assets. Delivery is in Kirklees, West Yorkshire. The requirement is for property and asset valuation expertise rather than building works or general facilities services.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Wilks Head & Eve LLP. Kirklees used a selective competition under a framework agreement. The contract was signed on 8 October 2026 and runs from 12 October 2026 to 11 October 2031. Its value is £121,125 excluding VAT (£145,350 including VAT). The requirement was arranged as one lot. The published procurement data does not describe the evaluation criteria, so the basis on which bids were assessed cannot be summarised here.

This award shows recurring demand from Kirklees for valuations of a mixed public-sector property portfolio, including operational buildings and investment assets, to support accounting and financial reporting. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate professional property valuation capability across those asset types, with the capacity to deliver work within a rolling valuation programme. Experience preparing valuations for public-sector financial reporting would be relevant to this requirement. The contract was awarded through a framework-based selective competition, so suppliers seeking comparable work from this buyer should be positioned to compete through the relevant framework route. The selected supplier is a small and medium-sized enterprise, indicating that the requirement was delivered by a specialist firm rather than necessarily requiring a large corporate provider.
