## Summary

The University of Edinburgh appointed project management services to support its Estates Small Projects & Minor Works team. The work concerns managing small estate projects and minor works for the university, with delivery in Edinburgh. The procurement is for consultancy services rather than construction works themselves. Thomson Gray is the appointed supplier. The requirement was grouped into one lot and used the project-management category of building consultancy. It sits within the university’s estates programme, so relevant suppliers are those able to provide project management for small-scale property and building projects in an institutional setting.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Thomson Gray. The University of Edinburgh used a direct award through Scotland Excel’s Building Construction Consultancy Framework, project management lot. The contract was signed on 31 August 2026, with an initial four-month term running to 30 December 2026. The university may extend the term at its discretion, up to a maximum total period of 12 months or until the services are complete, whichever comes first. The contract value is £139,485. The requirement was handled as a single lot. The published description notes that evaluation weightings relate to the original framework competition; this award used the framework route rather than a new open competition.

For suppliers competing for a similar requirement in future, the award demonstrates demand at the University of Edinburgh for project management support to its Estates Small Projects & Minor Works team. A credible competitor would need to show practical experience managing small estates projects and minor works, and the capacity to provide focused consultancy over a short initial engagement with scope for an extension. Familiarity with building construction consultancy frameworks, particularly Scotland Excel’s project management framework route, would be commercially relevant because this appointment was made through that route. One supplier bid for the lot, and the selected supplier was Thomson Gray. The procurement therefore indicates that the buyer has used a framework-based direct award for this specific project-management requirement.
