Summary of the contracting process

The Crescent Purchasing Consortium Limited, based in Salford, England, has issued an active Invitation to Tender (ITT) for construction and capital works under the framework agreement CA16292. The framework is designed for new-build or refurbishment capital projects across the education and wider public sectors, and will be accessible to a range of educational establishments and local authorities in the United Kingdom. This initiative covers multiple lots across the North and Midlands of England, seeking to implement various contractual frameworks such as JCT Minor Works and NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contracts. The tender is currently at the Tender stage with a procurement method classified as a competitive procedure with negotiation. Interested parties can participate until the tender period ends on 30th October 2025, with contracts expected to run from 1st May 2026 to 30th April 2028. The total contract value is estimated at £9.5 billion GBP, targeting the construction industry specifically.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for construction companies, particularly those with expertise in educational and public sector infrastructure projects. It is well-suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) able to deliver varying scales of capital works through recognised contracts like JCT and NEC4. Companies that specialise in building contracts, from minor works to extensive design and build projects, will find diverse opportunities across multiple lots. The geographical scope encompassing England's North and Midlands, along with the competitive procedure with negotiation, offers an accessible route for capable suppliers to secure high-value projects and expand their portfolios in public sector construction work.
