Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office has completed the procurement process for the "Queen Elizabeth II National Memorial - Masterplan Appointment of multidisciplinary design team". This contract involves the provision of services such as multidisciplinary design, planning consultancy, heritage consultancy, cost consultancy, and project management related to the master planning of the national memorial. The process followed a selective procurement method using a restricted procedure, above the threshold for such tenders. The end date for the tender period was 12th June 2025, with the contract period running from 7th October 2025 to 24th June 2037. The project's location is within the United Kingdom, classified under architectural services for outdoor areas (CPV code: 71222000). The contract was awarded to Foster & Partners Limited for the value of GBP 8,126,846.89, as documented on 6th November 2025.

This tender creates significant opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses experienced in architectural services and multidisciplinary design within the UK. Large-scale firms that excel in delivering architectural and consultancy services for prominent projects will find this opportunity lucrative, given the substantial budget and the extended contract period. The absence of suitability requirements for SMEs or VCSEs implies the project is aimed at larger organisations capable of leveraging robust resources and expertise. This project can enhance the portfolios of companies by associating them with a prestigious national memorial project, thereby potentially increasing their influence in future government contracts and large-scale architectural projects.
