Summary of the contracting process

Aberdeenshire Council is planning to procure asset valuation services for its property portfolio. The requirement is for professional valuation work covering approximately the Council’s property categories, with delivery across Aberdeenshire. The service is classified as property valuation and related professional consultancy services (CPV 79419000). The Council is the public-sector buyer and intends to appoint suitably qualified suppliers to provide valuations for its operational needs. This is a services requirement rather than a works or goods contract, so it is relevant to firms specialising in property, land and asset valuation, particularly those able to operate across Aberdeenshire and understand the requirements of a local authority property portfolio. The procurement is being developed for a future market approach rather than immediate tender submission.

The procurement is at the planning stage. Aberdeenshire Council has issued a request for information to gather information from suitably qualified suppliers before proceeding to a formal procurement. The Council anticipates requiring approximately 107 asset valuations during the 2026/27 financial year. It expects the next notice to be published on 1 September 2026; this is an indicative publication date, not a deadline for responding to a tender. The requirement is arranged as one planned lot covering the asset valuation service. The process is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. Suppliers should treat this as early market engagement: the Council has stated an intention to procure, but this record does not invite bids or establish a contract award.

This will suit established property valuation practices, surveying firms and professional services businesses with suitably qualified valuation staff and the capacity to deliver a substantial volume of individual assessments for a public-sector client. Firms with experience valuing varied property and asset categories, managing multiple instructions during a financial year and producing clear, defensible valuation reports are likely to be well placed when the requirement reaches the market. Local knowledge of Aberdeenshire may be useful, as may an operating model that can provide consistent coverage across the Council’s area. Businesses can use the information-gathering stage to explain their relevant valuation capability, geographic coverage, service capacity and experience of working with councils or comparable property owners, and to prepare for the later procurement.
