## Summary

Essex County Council is the buying organisation for a public procurement process titled "Project Management," related to project management services for Newport House in Chelmsford. This contract falls under the construction consultancy services category and was finalised through a limited competition procurement method, as it was a below-threshold opportunity. The procurement stage is now complete and was concluded with the award, and contract signing occurred on 1st April 2025. The contract, which spans from 1st May 2025 to 30th April 2029, involves a gross amount of £57,152. The services are to be delivered in the UKH3 region, primarily catering to the public authority - sub-central government sector.

This tender creates growth opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in project management and construction consultancy services. Firms with expertise in handling sub-central government projects would be in an advantageous position to compete for such contracts. Given the specific requirements and restricted competition method used, businesses with a keen understanding of local government needs in construction and project management will be well-suited for such opportunities, offering a significant potential for growth in the public services sector under similar future procurement exercises. Potter Raper Ltd, a SME, successfully secured the contract, exemplifying the potential for similar businesses to thrive in this space.
