SECTORS
Independent estates consultancy for organisations responsible for public sector property
Whether you are responsible for a single school, a multi-academy trust, a healthcare estate or a wider public sector property portfolio, successful estate decisions begin with understanding the buildings you have, the challenges you face and the opportunities available.
AltMarkt provides independent estates consultancy that helps organisations make informed property decisions, secure investment and deliver practical improvements that support long-term organisational goals.
AltMarkt Services Ltd is a RICS Regulated Firm with over 18 years’ experience supporting schools, academy trusts, healthcare organisations and public sector clients through independent estates consultancy, building surveying, architectural design and project delivery.
Every organisation is different. The estate questions are often the same.
Schools may be planning for increasing pupil numbers. Academy trusts may be deciding where limited capital funding will deliver the greatest benefit. Healthcare organisations need estates that continue supporting patient care while responding to changing service demands. Public sector organisations often balance ageing buildings, operational pressures and long-term investment priorities.
Although every organisation is different, many ask similar questions. Which buildings should we invest in first? What evidence do we need before making major decisions? How can we improve existing buildings rather than replace them? Which projects will deliver the greatest long-term value?
These are the questions that good estate strategy should answer. AltMarkt helps clients build the evidence, compare options and make practical decisions that support the people who use their buildings every day.
WHO WE SUPPORT
Estate consultancy for organisations responsible for public assets
Schools & Academies
Helping schools make informed decisions about estate condition, capital investment, refurbishment, expansion and long-term estate planning while minimising disruption to education.
Multi-Academy Trusts
Trust-wide estate planning, capital prioritisation, governance support and portfolio management across multiple academies, buildings and investment needs.
NHS & Healthcare
Support for healthcare estates managing operational resilience, backlog maintenance, capital planning, phased improvement works and service continuity.
Public Sector Organisations
Estate strategy, asset management and investment planning for local authorities, public bodies and civic organisations managing public property and community services.
HOW WE WORK
One consultancy. Different sectors. The same evidence-led approach.
Every organisation works differently. Every estate has different operational demands. But successful estate planning follows the same principles: understand the estate, build the evidence, identify priorities, develop practical options, secure investment, deliver improvements and review what comes next.
AltMarkt works alongside clients throughout that journey, providing independent advice that supports confident decision-making rather than simply producing reports. Our role is to make risks more visible, decisions more robust and next steps easier to act on.
