Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk County Council's Corporate Property Team (CPT) is actively seeking suppliers for its Consultancy Framework, aimed at services within the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection sectors. Located in Norfolk, this procurement is currently in the tender stage, with submissions closing on 17th October 2024. The process is divided into four distinct lots: Project Management and Contract Administration, Architectural Services, Building Services Engineer, and Building Control Principal Designer, each spanning over two years with possible extensions. The total value of the framework is estimated at £5.28 million, and it requires electronic submission of bids through the Council’s e-procurement system.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for consultancies specialising in project management, architectural design, mechanical and electrical engineering, and building control. The open procedure allows for maximum participation, enabling firms to bid for one or multiple lots, as there are no restrictions on the number of lots a supplier can win. This is an ideal opportunity for SMEs and larger consultancies alike to establish or expand their presence within local government projects in Norfolk, providing access to a steady stream of work over a potential four-year period. The framework structure also allows businesses to demonstrate their expertise and compete in mini-competitions for specific projects.
