Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence invites interest in its Portsmouth Naval Base Building Investment Programme, focused on survey and design services. This procurement process, currently in the planning stage, aims to support and regenerate five essential buildings within the naval base, including listed structures like the Sail Loft and the Cochrane Building. The project, valued between £40-60 million, will unfold over six years under a phased approval strategy. Located in Portsmouth, England, within the South East region, the programme's industry classification falls under Architectural and Building-surveying services. The engagement period concludes on 23 May 2025.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses experienced in architectural and building-surveying services. Although not particularly targeting SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises with the capacity to handle comprehensive surveys, planning applications, and design and build contracts will find the programme conducive for growth. Those with expertise in managing projects of historical significance and complex renovation within operational environments stand to benefit significantly by contributing to the enhancement of vital naval infrastructure.
