Summary of the contracting process

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is overseeing a public procurement process titled "CPS moves within London," related to the relocation of its staff within London. As part of the Places for Growth initiative, this project involves moving approximately 1,800 staff to new locations by 2028, with transition support required in the interim. The tender process has reached the award stage, with an active contract beginning on 19th January 2026 and ending on 10th April 2026. The procurement, classified under research consultancy services (CPV code 73210000), has been conducted via a limited competitive quotation method, below the threshold value of £49,000. The contract is situated in London, United Kingdom, providing a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The deadline for tender submissions concluded on 17th November 2025.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for growth, particularly for SMEs specialising in project support, project management, and consultancy within the public sector. The requirement for setting up project structures and governance offers a platform for businesses to showcase their expertise in strategic management and execution. With the CPS as the buyer, a large-scale organisation, successful bidders can significantly enhance their portfolio and credibility by partnering with a prominent government entity. The alignment with broader government-led initiatives might also lead to further collaboration opportunities in the future.
