The four-year framework, used by public sector bodies is divided into seven lots. Savills is just one of four firms appointed across all seven lots. They are as follows:

• Surveying and strategic advice
• Total estate management
• Estate (property) management
• Agency and leases management
• Valuations and CPOS
• Business rating services
• Integrated work place management

Coming into effect from 21 August, the new framework will see Savills join the roster of go-to experts for public sector bodies.

CCS supports the public sector to achieve maximum commercial value when procuring common goods and services. In 2020/21 CCS helped the public sector to achieve commercial benefits equal to £2.04bn - supporting world-class public services that offer best value for taxpayers.

Savills public sector team work closely with key central government departments, delivery agencies, housing associations and local authorities to provide strategic advice and delivery capability across UK residential, commercial and rural land markets.

Alex McKinlay, Savills Head of Public Sector comments “Our appointment to all seven panels is testament to our commitment to this important sector right across the UK business. We look forward to continuing to add value to our existing public sector clients as well as forging new relationships.”

Richard Rees, Savills UK Managing Director says “Our work with the public sector is hugely important to us, and the CCS framework enables us to seamlessly deliver our full suite of professional services.”
