Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Bank of England bought construction professional services under a Professional Services Agreement for building repairs. The work is classified as consultative engineering and construction services (CPV 71310000). Delivery is associated with the Bank of England’s Threadneedle Street premises in London. The procurement is for services supporting the repair of buildings; no more detailed breakdown of repair tasks is provided. The buying organisation is the Bank of England.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Gardiner & Theobald. The award date was 31 January 2026, and the contract period runs from 1 February 2026 to 31 January 2027. The awarded value is £212,750. The Bank of England used a selective route, making a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 31 January 2026. The procurement was classified as services and the stated estimated value was also £212,750. The available evaluation information does not identify specific award criteria or weightings.

This award shows that the Bank of England purchases building-repair professional services through framework call-offs. A supplier seeking to compete for the same requirement in future would need to provide construction consultancy and engineering expertise relevant to building repairs, and be capable of delivering professional services for the Bank’s London premises. The selected supplier, Gardiner & Theobald, is a large organisation, indicating that a large provider was selected for this contract; the procurement does not establish that smaller firms are excluded from future work. Credibility would depend on demonstrating relevant technical experience and the capacity to support building repair requirements through the framework route. The requirement is a focused opportunity for firms whose core work is construction professional services, rather than building repair contractors offering works alone.
