Summary of the contracting process

Somerset Council has completed a public procurement process for project management and engineering support services under the NEC4 Major Structures Framework 2027. The procurement, titled "Project Mgt Support - Major Structures 2027 - Call-off under Scape Consultancy Framework," falls under the industry category of civil engineering consultancy services. The project location is specified as the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is the award phase, with the contract having been awarded on 12th June 2026 to AECOM for a value of £109,000. The contract period spans from 12th June 2026 to 27th December 2026, and the procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from an existing framework agreement. Key dates included the tender period ending on 11th June 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in civil engineering consultancy as it focuses on infrastructure projects within the specified region. Companies that are well-established in large-scale project management and engineering support, particularly those familiar with the NEC4 framework, would be best suited to compete for this type of contract. Although SMEs and VCSEs were not targeted for this specific procurement, businesses with a strong track record in handling complex consultancy services can leverage such opportunities to grow and enhance their portfolio by aligning with large public sector projects provided by councils like Somerset.
