Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the Crown Commercial Service on behalf of The National Archives, under the Department for Culture, Media & Sport, culminated in the award for the Provision of Total Facilities Management at their single estate in Kew, United Kingdom. The contract, classified under building and facilities management services, has been awarded to EQUANS SERVICES LIMITED. It falls under the selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement, with the procurement stage now in the award phase as of 24th July 2025. The contract, valued at £25,000,000, spans from 1st September 2025 to 31st August 2032, focusing on services delivery in the South East of England.

This prestigious contract presents substantial opportunities for firms specialising in facilities management, particularly those capable of delivering hard and soft FM services along with helpdesk support. Although the procurement method was selective, eligible businesses with existing framework agreements might find similar future opportunities lucrative. Large firms with substantial resources in the South East are best positioned to capitalise on these contracts, promoting business growth through enhanced service delivery and strategic partnerships with prominent public sector entities.
