Knight Frank's building consultancy team has been bestowed with a gold standard supplier recognition award following its work on Royal Mail properties in Scotland.

Royal Mail presented Knight Frank's Aberdeen and Glasgow offices with the accolade after assessing the firm’s three-year contract work across Scotland.

This included an evaluation of the team’s performance and timeliness against the project budget.

The information was collated following a series of questionnaires from Royal Mail managers to give the firm an impressive score of 93%, earning them gold standard recognition.


Knight Frank has been providing building consultancy services to Royal Mail’s property portfolio in Scotland for over 19 years. The firm has provided Royal Mail with project management, architectural design, and cost control services.

During this time, Knight Frank has provided building consultancy services across a number of different Royal Mail properties from as far north as Shetland and the Western Isles to Stranraer in the south.

Doug Garden, partner, Knight Frank said: "The building consultancy team works very hard to maintain high standards and deliver top notch results for our clients so we’re delighted to be recognised by Royal Mail in this way. We look forward to continuing our working relationship with them in the years to come."

Knight Frank will continue to work with Royal Mail for a further 1.5 years following a renewal of their term contract in 2009.
