## Summary

Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council, a public authority in central government, recently concluded a procurement process titled "Agency Advice and Support for the Delivery of Brandhall Village." This contract, which focuses on the industry category of research and development consultancy services, involves key services in business development consultancy. Located in Oldbury, UKG37, the tender process reached the award stage on 4th August 2025, with a contract period from 1st November 2025 to 31st December 2026. The procurement was conducted under an open competition, specifically a below-threshold tendering process, resulting in the appointment of Aspinall Verdi Limited as the supplier for the project. This follows a tender stage that ended on 21st July 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for consultancy firms, particularly those specialising in research and development or business development services, to leverage their expertise in a large-scale residential and community project. SMEs were particularly encouraged, with one submitting a final stage bid. Organisations capable of providing strategic land agent advice, negotiating disposal agreements, and supporting housing development projects in similar local authority contexts would find this contract particularly conducive for business growth. Such opportunities enable these companies to position themselves as partners in future urban development projects and enhance their visibility within the regional public sector market.

## Notice

SMBC owns the former Brandhall golf course in the south-west of the borough. In November 2022 the decision was made to release 5.1ha of the site for residential development, whilst the remainder of the site will remain in Council ownership for the development a replacement Causeway Green Primary school (approx. 2.6ha), and the development of a public park. The Council appointed a land agent and associated professionals to advise and assist the Council in procuring a developer for the housing site, the negotiation of the disposal agreement, and potential support that may be required as the development progresses.
