Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice is seeking providers for a Framework Agreement titled "Framework Agreement for Prison Operator Services in England and Wales," aimed at delivering Operational Custodial Services and Facilities Management for prisons throughout England and Wales. The procurement, classified under the CPV code for prison services, is currently in the Award stage. The Framework Agreement will be effective for six years, commencing on 4th July 2019 and lasting until 3rd July 2025. The initial Mini-Competition will focus on a New Build Category C Resettlement Prison in Wellingborough. The tender period ended on 17th December 2017.

This Framework Agreement presents significant opportunities for large service providers engaged in custodial and facilities management sectors, potentially worth £4 billion over its duration. Companies that excel in operational management, rehabilitation services, or infrastructure development will find this a lucrative area to compete. Furthermore, as existing prison contracts expire, additional provisions under this Framework will emerge, allowing eligible operators to actively participate in forthcoming competitions.
