## Summary

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office procured cost management services for the refurbishment of the British High Commissioner’s residence in Ottawa, Canada. The work covers quantity surveying and broader cost management for a refurbishment project, including the financial oversight needed to support delivery. The procurement is categorised as services, with refurbishment work as the associated project category and quantity surveying services as an additional category. The buying organisation is based in London and the principal project location is Ottawa. The requirement is relevant to cost consultants, quantity surveyors, project cost managers and firms experienced in advising on refurbishment works for public-sector or diplomatic property. The stated requirement also covers delivery locations across the United Kingdom, Europe and other territories, but the project described is the Ottawa residence refurbishment.

The procurement reached completion and was awarded to Tetra Tech Limited on 22 July 2025. The award value is £318,631.51. The contract runs from 17 August 2026 to 17 September 2030. The original tender deadline was 1 May 2026 at 12:00. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than an open standalone competition. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office was the buyer. The award is active and covers the full cost management requirement for the Ottawa refurbishment project. The published outcome identifies one successful supplier and does not divide the requirement into separate lots or report separate award values. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although the selected supplier is a large organisation.

This award demonstrates demand from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office for specialist cost management and quantity surveying on a substantial, long-term refurbishment project in an overseas diplomatic setting. A credible future supplier would need to control project costs, provide quantity surveying expertise and support refurbishment delivery through robust commercial advice. Relevant experience in complex building refurbishment, public-sector estates, diplomatic or similarly sensitive properties would strengthen a competing firm’s position. Suppliers should also be able to operate across international locations and coordinate effectively with a UK government client, project teams and contractors. The requirement’s stated SME suitability indicates that smaller specialist practices may be capable of competing, particularly where they can evidence strong technical delivery, commercial controls and sufficient organisational capacity for a multi-year commission.
