Summary of the contracting process

Shropshire Towns and Rural Housing is initiating a public procurement process for a "Major Works Framework," with the aim to establish a four-year framework agreement for refurbishment, electrical installation, and repainting work. The process is currently at the planning stage, with a preliminary market engagement notice published on 27 August 2025. This procurement, under the Procurement Act 2023, will consist of four main lots, some of which include sub-lots, and will be open for engagement until the deadline of 12 September 2025. The project is estimated to commence in mid-2026 at locations in the United Kingdom, specifically in the UKG22 region, with a total estimated contract value of £26 million.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and maintenance within the public sector, particularly those focusing on refurbishment, electrical works, and repainting services. With the framework agreement intended to encourage SME participation, companies with such profiles are well-suited to compete for this contract. The use of JCT MTC or Minor Works contracts for call-offs provides flexibility and varied opportunities for businesses looking to expand their portfolio in government projects. The schedule allows businesses to engage in the planning stages, ensuring they are well-prepared when the tender moves towards the awarding phase, with further notices expected by 3 November 2025.
