Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process, conducted by the House of Commons, involves the delivery of engineering design services under the title "MDS FOR UNDERGROUND CAR PARK AND CRITICAL SERVICES WORKS". The tender belongs to the services category within the engineering industry. The project, valued at £921,641, is meant to be executed in various regions, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and others. The procurement method used is a selective process, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, which started on 21st May 2021, is set to conclude on 5th April 2027. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with the award being actively dated as of 7th May 2021 and published on 25th June 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the engineering and architectural services sector. Given the nature of the project, large-scale architectural firms, like Purcell Architecture, which has been awarded the contract, are well-suited to compete in this space. Companies with expertise in underground car park construction and critical infrastructure design could leverage such opportunities for growth and expansion, particularly those with the capacity to work under framework agreements and within the specified geographic scope. While small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are not specified as target candidates, larger firms with substantial experience in relevant engineering services would find significant business potential here.
