Summary of the contracting process

Transport for Wales has awarded a contract for property consultancy services, which was finalised on 24th January 2025. The award, valued at £400,000, falls under the services category and follows an open procurement procedure. Alder King LLP, a large-scale supplier, has been selected to support the Commercial Property team with specialised knowledge and additional capacity. The primary location for the delivery of these services is in the UKL region, with a particular focus on the Core Valley Lines. This procurement process included a tender period that began in mid-2024, with the official contract signing taking place earlier this year.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the real estate and property consultancy sectors, especially those with expertise in ratings advice, planning consultancy, and transactional property valuations. The contract is designed to extend the internal capability of Transport for Wales' property team, providing resilience during peak periods of casework. Companies that can offer multi-disciplinary commercial land and property real estate advisory services on a task-specific call-off basis are particularly well-suited for this opportunity. This engagement promises substantial business growth potential through strategic collaboration with a key transport authority in Wales.

Notice Title

Property Consultancy

Notice Description

TfW are building the internal team to deliver much of the land and property casework. The casework extends to the management of station lettings, portfolio management across the TfW-owned Core Valley Lines as well as transactional matters as remit expands in a transport space. This contract will provide support to the Commercial Property team and deliver on instructions where specialist knowledge is required or for work that we cannot undertake internally such as ratings advice, planning consultancy, and valuations for transactional matters. The contract will also support where the internal team reaches capacity and therefore provide resilience against the peaks and troughs of property team casework. Further details can be found in the scope document.
