UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Sunderland City Council is planning to initiate a framework agreement for minor construction works, valued at £8,000,000. The contracting process, situated in the North East of England (region UKC23), falls under the construction industry category. It is currently at the planning stage, with a future notice expected on 4th January 2026. The framework is scheduled to commence on 12th September 2026 and conclude on 11th September 2030. As a sub-central government public authority, Sunderland City Council serves as the buyer and is facilitating this tender process under the legal basis of the 2023/54 UK legislation.

This framework presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), given their recognition in the suitability criteria for competing in the tender. Businesses involved in construction work can leverage this programme to establish or expand their presence in the public sector marketplace. The provision of a long-term framework agreement ensures a stable pipeline of projects across multiple years, making it an ideal opportunity for organisations seeking growth through reliable government contracts.
