Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice has completed the award stage for the "Contingency Response Programme - Package 3," a significant construction and infrastructure tender valued at £245,680,004.75. This project involves the construction of prison buildings under the Additional 20,000 prison Places Delivery Programme and the Capital Maintenance and Minor Works Programme. The procurement, executed via a call-off from a framework agreement under selective procedures, involves two contracts—one under PPC2000 terms and another under NEC4 terms. The project spans various locations including the British Overseas Territories and the United Kingdom, with a contract period running from 13th October 2025 to 4th April 2036.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for construction firms specialising in large-scale infrastructure projects, particularly those well-versed in handling critical site operations within security-intensive environments. While the procurement method favoured larger organisations, collaboration with experienced entities like Kier Construction Limited, the awarded supplier, can foster opportunities for subcontracting and joint ventures. Businesses with expertise in managing time-sensitive and highly regulated construction environments stand to benefit significantly by aligning with the objectives of this expansive prison infrastructure initiative.
