Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence, based in Glasgow, United Kingdom, has undertaken an extension of the PFI Cosford and Shawbury contract, classified under the housing services industry. This contract extension was officially signed on 10th June 2025, with the period extending the original agreement by three additional years, concluding on 12th June 2028. This amendment does not alter the contract's financial terms, maintaining the value at £59,194,000 GBP. The contracting process is currently in the contract update stage, and the procurement method falls under a non-competitive extension, invoking pre-existing clauses for additional services without a new competitive tender.

This contract presents opportunities for large-scale service providers in the housing industry to maintain and enhance their strategic partnerships with government entities like the Ministry of Defence. Businesses that are prepared to align with long-term government projects and can manage extensive service provisions will be particularly well-suited to capitalise on similar opportunities in the future. Given the non-competitive nature of this contract extension, companies with existing governmental relationships could find potential growth by ensuring high standards and demonstrating innovative service delivery within current agreements to secure further contract relationships and extensions.
