## Summary

The Crown Estate has completed the procurement stage for a contract titled "Service Charge Reconciliations," focusing on services to clear a backlog of reconciliations within their London portfolio. The buying organisation is a central government public authority located in London, specifically at 1 St James Market, SW1Y 4AH. The procurement process was managed as a direct award to Grant Thornton UK LLP, owing to the urgency to address resourcing issues and customer service challenges. The contract commenced on 14th October 2025 and is set to conclude by 31st March 2026. This contract fits within the category of accounting, auditing, and fiscal services, with a total gross value amounting to £434,700.

This direct award tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses in the financial services sector, particularly those with expertise in accounting and auditing, to demonstrate their capability in handling pressing financial reconciliations efficiently. While Grant Thornton UK LLP, a large-scale firm, has already been designated as the supplier, this scenario underscores the potential for other similar businesses to position themselves as capable partners in future urgent procurement processes. Companies with a demonstrated ability to scale resources quickly and manage high-pressure financial tasks would find themselves well-suited to compete for such tenders, particularly in central government and public sector environments.

## Notice

Additional resources from Grant Thornton to support the service charge team clear the backlog of service charge reconciliations for the London portfolio

### Procurement Information

We have attempted to close this issue by other means - largely resourcing internally and using agencies. We are not able to clear the backlogs in time and need to do so before 31 March 2026. Therefore we need to appoint firms with dedicated resources available quickly
