Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has awarded a contract to establish an Estates Control Centre (ECC) to oversee and manage the Estates Delivery functions related to the Jobcentre and Careers Service (JCS) programme. This procurement falls under the services category for property management on a fee or contract basis (CPV: 70330000). The procurement process followed a selective method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £5,535,404, runs from 17th November 2025 to 16th May 2027, and services are to be delivered across the United Kingdom. The award was published on 11th December 2025 and involves Perfect Circle JV Ltd as the supplier.

This contract presents a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in property management services within the UK, especially those capable of handling large-scale government projects. While the procurement method was selective, businesses experienced in framework agreements and managing extensive real estate functions could benefit from engaging with similar future opportunities. Although this specific tender is not designated for SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises with comprehensive management and reporting capabilities would be well-suited to compete in this market space for similar contracts.
