Summary of the contracting process

Sunderland City Council is conducting a tender for a "Professional Services Framework" aimed at establishing a framework for the provision of professional services. This initiative is classified under business and management consultancy services and will take place in Sunderland, England. The procurement method adopted is an open procedure, divided into four lots: Architectural Consultancy Services, Cost Management Consultancy Services, Civil and Structural Engineering Consultancy Services, and Principal Designer Consultancy Services. The tender period is set to close on 21 December 2020, with the contract expected to commence on 18 January 2021 and last until 19 January 2025.

This procurement presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in various consultancy services to engage with Sunderland City Council. Businesses with expertise in architectural, cost management, civil and structural engineering, or principal design consultancy are encouraged to submit bids. As the framework allows for providers to bid for single or multiple lots and aims to award the top three suppliers for each lot on a ranked basis, this opens avenues for competitive growth and collaboration with a key public sector organisation.
