Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Staffordshire County Council is in the planning stage of a procurement process for "Property Design and associated Professional Services," targeting the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services sector. The buyer plans to initiate the tender process with a budget of £1,200,000 for the fiscal year 2023/2024, with expectations to allocate an average of £15 million annually over the next three years for school building projects, alongside approximately £10 million for corporate buildings. Key dates include the start of the contract period on 1 April 2023, ending on 31 March 2028, and a future notice date of 1 June 2022 for prospective bidders to prepare their submissions.

This procurement presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specializing in design and engineering services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Suitable competitors may include architectural firms, quantity surveyors, and project management companies that can deliver comprehensive design services from feasibility studies to construction contract management. Given the focus on large-scale school projects and potential TUPE transfers of existing staff, businesses poised to manage both public sector partnerships and workforce transitions will find this an advantageous opportunity conducive to growth in the West Midlands region.
