We are pleased to announce that Insight Consulting Services (ICS) has been named as a supplier on Crown Commercial Service’s RM6343 Estate Management Services 2 framework.
ICS has been named on the following lots:
- Lot 2 – Estate (Property) Management
- Lot 4 – Surveying and Strategic Advice
- Lot 5 – Valuation and Compulsory Purchase Orders
- Lot 8a – PFI Technical and Strategic Advice Services
- Lot 8b – PFI Surveying Services
- Lot 8c – PFI Fire Safety and Audit
- Lot 8d – PFI Specialist Commercial and Financial Advice
For central government departments, NHS organisations, local authorities, blue light services and the wider public sector, the Estate Management Services 2 framework has specific lots that allow you to access ICS support on estate strategy, surveying, valuation and PFI-related issues.
Crown Commercial Service supports the public sector to achieve maximum commercial value when procuring common goods and services. In 2024/25, CCS helped the public sector to achieve commercial benefits equal to £5.3 billion – supporting world-class public services that offer best value for taxpayers.
Access the team of ICS experts easily via RM6343
Through Estate Management Services 2, you can:
- Use one framework to unlock multiple services – bring together estates strategy, surveys, valuations and PFI advice under a single, coherent programme of work.
- Move at the speed of your risk – use RM6343’s structured mini-competitions and taxi-rank call-off approach to engage ICS more quickly than starting a new standalone procurement.
- De-risk PFI expiry and handback – call off focused PFI technical, surveying, fire safety and commercial support via dedicated lots, instead of piecing together separate commissions.
- Protect today while shaping tomorrow – use data-led insight on condition, compliance and value to inform decisions on rationalisation, disposal, repurposing and investment.
- Give assurance to audit and boards – rely on a nationally procured CCS route with pre-qualified suppliers, standard terms and clear value-for-money controls.
Fast, “on-call” support via the taxi rank system
RM6343 Estate Management Services 2 offers a new ‘taxi rank’ route to market for some call-offs, allowing buyers to draw on pre-qualified suppliers in sequence when urgent support is needed. For ICS, that means we can act as responsive, “on-call” specialists, particularly for surveying and estates advice, when issues emerge on your estate and you need a quick, compliant way to get expert help.
A word from our CEO
Richard Collins, Chief Executive of Insight Executive Group, said:“Our appointment to Enterprise Management Services 2 is good news for estates and PFI leaders who need practical support rather than increased procurement complexity.
RM6343 gives public bodies a simple, compliant way to tap into our estates and PFI specialists. And with the taxi rank route expected to be available for some call-offs, our team can be ready to respond quickly when customers need urgent surveying or estates advice.
It means we can partner with clients earlier and more effectively, helping them protect frontline services today while building a smaller, better and greener estate for the future.”
