Public sector transaction advisory

Public sector property transactions carry a level of accountability and complexity that private sector deals do not. Whether you are restructuring a PFI arrangement, acquiring or disposing of a complex asset, or navigating a procurement process under the Procurement Act 2023, the decisions made at each stage have lasting financial and reputational consequences for your organisation.

BTG Eddisons provides specialist transaction advisory to public sector clients across capital markets, property transactions, and procurement. Our team combines deep knowledge of public sector finance and governance with the commercial expertise to structure deals that deliver genuine value for money for the public purse.

Capital markets

Our team advises on a range of finance, lease, and PFI restructuring deals designed to enhance value for money for the public purse. Whether you are reviewing an existing PFI contract, restructuring a lease arrangement, or exploring alternative financing structures for a capital programme, we provide the analytical rigour and transactional experience to identify the best achievable outcome and support its delivery.

Transactions

We create and manage innovative property transactions involving the leasing, acquisition, and disposal of complex assets for public sector clients. Our approach goes beyond straightforward market transactions, drawing on creative deal structures to enhance financial outcomes where conventional routes would leave value on the table. From single-asset disposals to portfolio-level transactions, we act in your interests throughout.

Procurement

The Procurement Act 2023 has fundamentally changed how public bodies engage the market for property services and capital works. We advise on the new procedures under the Act, helping clients navigate the open procedure and the competitive flexible procedure to achieve successful, compliant procurement outcomes.

Our team can advise on developer competitions, procurement of capital works contractors, and appointment of centre managers and other specialist service providers.

Our public sector transaction advisory service is used by a wide range of organisations, including:

• Local authorities managing complex asset disposals or acquisitions.
• Central government departments and arm's length bodies with capital programme requirements.
• NHS trusts and healthcare bodies restructuring estate financing or PFI arrangements.
