## Summary

The Chief Constable of Thames Valley Police intends to commission professional roof surveys and maintenance schedules across its estate. The work covers identifying the construction and condition of flat roofs, including woodwool or Stramit decks and waterproofing layers, as well as the construction and condition of pitched roofs. The consultant will schedule maintenance, repairs and replacements, and provide survey data in stages so the police force can check its usefulness for reporting and planning future work. The estate includes sites across the Thames Valley. The anticipated scope is around 75 flat-roof units and 110 pitched-roof units. The work is consultancy and building-survey services, with associated engineering and site investigation elements.

The procurement is at planning stage: Thames Valley Police has stated its intention to procure, but has not invited tenders. It is undertaking preliminary market engagement to gauge supplier interest and determine the appropriate procurement route; no procedure has yet been settled. The buyer expects suppliers to express market interest by 1 October 2026, and asks them to identify any frameworks or dynamic purchasing systems they participate in. The expected contract period is 1 December 2026 to 31 January 2027. The estimated value is £195,000 excluding VAT and £234,000 including VAT. The work is described as one lot, with small and medium-sized businesses considered suitable. Evaluation criteria have not yet been set out.

This work is likely to suit building-survey and property-maintenance consultancies able to inspect both flat and pitched roofs, identify roof construction and assess condition, then turn findings into practical maintenance and repair or replacement schedules. Suppliers will need to work across multiple police estate sites and provide data progressively so the force can check its quality as surveys proceed. Staff visiting sites and compiling survey data must be vetted by Thames Valley Police or Warwickshire Police. The buyer expects written reports in Word and PDF, schedules and data in Excel and PDF, and drawings in AutoCAD DWG and PDF; it will provide site plans in DWG for the consultant to annotate. Suppliers with suitable surveying, data-handling and CAD capability, and relevant framework or DPS participation to report during engagement, are well placed to prepare.
