Summary of the contracting process

The House of Commons has completed the procurement process for the "Victoria Tower Cable Tracing Investigation," categorised under construction work (CPV: 45000000). The procurement utilised a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, with Emico awarded the contract valued at £477,617.18. The contract period extends from 31st May 2024 to 1st July 2027, and includes delivery across the UK and other regions. This process was finalised as of 18th March 2024, marking the award stage of the procurement lifecycle.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialised in construction, particularly those experienced in cable tracing and infrastructure projects. While the project does not specifically target SMEs or voluntary organisations, firms with robust capabilities in construction can benefit by exploring similar government frameworks. Businesses capable of delivering complex projects across diverse geographic locations are particularly well-suited to participate in such selective procurement processes facilitated by public bodies like the House of Commons.
