## Summary

Portsmouth City Council has successfully completed the procurement process for the consultancy review of the Portsmouth Homes Service Charge, awarding the contract to AD ESSE CONSULTING LIMITED. This contract falls under the 'services' category, specifically focusing on building consultancy services. The procurement method used was direct, below the threshold, thereby proceeding without competition. The process culminated with the award and signing of the contract on 12th March 2026, with the consulting services slated to conclude by 31st May 2026. This project is located in Portsmouth, United Kingdom, in the region of UKJ31, within the public authority sub-central government classification, targeting specialist consultancy services.

The award presents significant growth opportunities for consulting firms that specialise in service charges and building consultancy. As the buyer, Portsmouth City Council values expertise in consultancy services, thus businesses equipped with relevant experience in similar consultancy scenarios would be well-suited to compete for future contracts in this field. Additionally, firms capable of operating efficiently within set timelines and appreciating the nuances of government projects could leverage this background towards long-term opportunities with public authorities. Given the utilisation of a direct procurement method, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with niche expertise stand to benefit from such contracts, especially when streamlined processes are preferred.
