Summary of the contracting process

The Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust, in conjunction with Pagabo Limited, is in the planning phase of establishing a National Framework for Major Works 2026. As the buyer, the Trust seeks to create a framework that includes construction and refurbishments for various public sector entities within the UK. The intended framework will cover a wide range of projects, including new builds, housing developments, and more complex constructions. With the planning stage well underway, key pre-market engagements are scheduled, such as a webinar on 16th October 2025. The framework, estimated at a gross value of £6 billion, is set to commence on 20th April 2026 and last until 19th April 2030, covering all regions of the UK.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in various construction sectors to secure long-term projects under a framework agreement. SMEs and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the framework is designed to accommodate a wide range of business sizes and types. With a broad classification of construction work, from dwelling buildings to infrastructure projects, businesses with relevant experience and capability could leverage this framework to expand their operations and client base in the public sector. Interested parties are advised to register on the In-Tend e-tendering portal to express their interest and stay informed of upcoming opportunities and procurement details.
