## Summary

The Government Property Agency procured deputy director services to support its capital projects programme. The work is in the professional services category, specifically construction project management. It covers senior leadership and project-management support for the agency’s capital-project activity across the United Kingdom. The buyer is the Government Property Agency, a sub-central public authority. The requirement is suited to organisations that can provide an experienced deputy director with a strong understanding of capital projects, construction project management and the governance of public-sector property investment. It is a focused professional-services requirement rather than a construction works package or the supply of materials, so relevant firms are those providing senior property, infrastructure or construction programme leadership.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct award to Turner & Townsend Project Management Limited. The award date was 8 September 2026. The awarded value is £333,360 excluding VAT, or £397,632 including VAT. The contract period runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. There was one lot covering the full requirement. The buyer’s stated rationale for the direct award was that the supplier was already providing the service and had the knowledge and continuity required; the procurement also records single-supplier technical reasons. The award is above the relevant threshold. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 21 September 2026. The procurement used a direct-award route rather than an open competition.

This award indicates demand for senior, embedded support to a public property body’s capital-projects programme. Competitors seeking similar work with the Government Property Agency would need to demonstrate strong construction project-management capability alongside leadership suitable for a deputy-director role. The successful supplier’s position shows the commercial importance of existing knowledge of the buyer’s projects, established working relationships and continuity of service. A credible future competitor would therefore need evidence of managing complex capital-project environments, coordinating delivery and governance, and providing senior personnel who can take responsibility within an existing public-sector programme. Larger professional-services firms with the capacity to maintain continuity and provide experienced property or infrastructure specialists are particularly well placed for this type of requirement.
