Summary of the contracting process

Construction and Procurement Delivery CPD, Department of Finance, Northern Ireland, established a pan-government framework for civil engineering minor works for public sector bodies across Northern Ireland. The work covers infrastructure development, buildings, structures, roads, railways, water supply, sewerage schemes and land contamination, including highway construction, engineering and maintenance. It is divided between the Northern Area and Southern Area, with a reserve arrangement for each area. The framework is intended for use by participating public sector organisations, with individual works packages normally not exceeding £750,000. Suppliers appointed to the framework may be engaged through direct call-off or a further competition and would undertake works under an NEC4 Engineering and Construction Short Contract.

This awarded procurement used a selective restricted procedure to establish a framework with up to four participants across four lots: Northern Area, Southern Area, and reserve lots for each area. The tender deadline was amended from 5 December to 12 December 2024. Contracts were signed on 18 June 2026. The framework period is 1,440 days, initially two years with two possible one-year extensions. The contract values are £15,694,525.14 for the Northern Area, £18,979,753.33 for the Southern Area, £22,296,426 for the Northern reserve and £25,768,886.61 for the Southern reserve. ADMAN CIVIL PROJECTS LIMITED, WHITEMOUNTAIN QUARRIES LTD trading as BREEDON, LOWRY BUILDING CIVIL ENGINEERING LTD and BSG CIVIL ENGINEERING LTD were awarded those lots respectively. Evaluation weighted quality and social value at 40% and price at 60%.

This opportunity demonstrates sustained Northern Ireland public-sector demand for civil engineering minor works across transport, buildings, utilities, structures and contaminated land. A credible future supplier would need the licences, accreditations or certificates required for the relevant work categories and sectors, together with demonstrable technical and professional ability and adequate economic and financial standing. The framework attracted 17 bids for each lot, including one SME bid per lot, so suppliers should expect meaningful competition. Strong candidates would be able to deliver geographically across the relevant Northern or Southern Area, manage varied infrastructure and maintenance projects, and work within NEC4 Engineering and Construction Short Contract requirements. Reliable performance monitoring and effective social value delivery would also be important to competing successfully.
