Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the Bank of England, located in London, focused on acquiring technical support for an Arc Flash assessment at their Debden site. This contract falls within the consultative engineering and construction services industry category, classified under CPV codes 71310000 and 71530000. The procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, ensuring high standards and expertise. The procurement process concluded with an award stage on 16 January 2026, and the contract period is set from 5 January 2026 to 1 May 2026. Key dates include the tender period ending on 1 December 2025. The Bank of England selected AECOM Limited, a large-scale supplier, as the provider for this contract, valued at £57,061.28 GBP.

This project represents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in engineering consultancy and construction services, particularly those experienced in delivering high-value technical assessments. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are deemed suitable for such tenders, though this specific procurement was awarded to a larger firm. The call-off approach from a framework agreement indicates a propensity to engage businesses with pre-existing qualifications and framework affiliations. This procurement approach not only ensures efficient project execution but also provides a gateway for businesses to potentially engage with a prestigious institution like the Bank of England, fostering further growth and opportunities within the public procurement sector.
