Summary of the contracting process

Norwich City Council recently completed a procurement process for "Building Consultancy Services", classified under civil engineering consultancy services. The process was for a contract valuing £375,000 to be executed in the East of England, United Kingdom. This tender was part of a selective procurement method known as a call-off from a framework agreement with Eastern Procurement Limited. The procurement moved from the tender to the award stage as of 8th July 2025, with the contract period running from 8th July 2025 to 1st June 2027. Key deadlines included the tender period's end on 13th May 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, particularly for SMEs capable of delivering civil engineering consultancy services. The requirement for a single Engineering Consultant to conduct pre-repair surveys indicates a specialised yet accessible market for firms with relevant expertise. Businesses with a local presence or operational capacity in the East of England will find this advantageous due to proximity considerations. The contract demands technical proficiency and the ability to meet council specifications, attracting enterprises that are adept at navigating framework agreements and public service contracts. As such, firms looking to expand their footprint in public sector works will find such opportunities lucrative, especially given the backing of established procurement frameworks.
