## Summary

The Chiltern Learning Trust, operating as a public authority under sub-central government in the UK, recently awarded a contract to AMR Consult Limited for a project management service. This tender, completed through an open procurement procedure, aims to support the Trust’s capital programme and asset management, especially within the educational sector across the UK region of East of England (UKH2). With a contract valued at £700,000 excluding VAT, the services commenced on 23rd May 2026 and are expected to run until 1st May 2029, with potential extensions. The appointment was due to complete transparency and detailed evaluation criteria focusing on consistency in school funding, infrastructure condition management, and overall strategic estate decision-making.

The scope of services includes developing asset management plans, handling capital investment works, and managing project risks, offering ample growth potential and the chance to build long-term relationships with public authorities like the Chiltern Learning Trust.
