Summary of the contracting process

The Academy Transformation Trust, based in Sutton Coldfield, is currently engaged in a public procurement process for the "Total Facilities Management Solution" contract, which is set in the facilities management services industry. The procurement is in the award stage, with a previously signed contract worth £9,000,000.

The successful contractor must also be prepared to collaborate closely with the Academy Transformation Trust's internal teams and may need to employ specialized subcontractors to meet the diverse scope of the required services.
