Summary of the contracting process

Scape Procure Limited, a public authority within sub-central government, is currently in the planning stage for the "SCAPE Professional Services and Development Framework." This procurement process aims to establish a framework agreement to provide professional services and development advice across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Key milestones include market engagement events scheduled for 27 November 2025 in Manchester and 2 December 2025 in London, with a follow-up webinar on 10 December 2025. These engagement sessions will provide networking opportunities and discussions about the framework, which is set to commence on 4 January 2027 and potentially extend until 3 January 2033. This extensive procurement, valued at up to £3.6 billion, covers services in the financial, real estate, construction, IT, environmental sectors, and more, supporting the SCAPE agenda to facilitate SME involvement.

This procurement represents a substantial opportunity for businesses in various sectors, particularly those in the built environment, infrastructure, and development services. With an anticipated framework turnover of £85 million for each supplier, the tender is especially advantageous for larger enterprises capable of meeting this financial criterion. However, SCAPE is open to bids from consortia, partnerships, or JVs, where SMEs can participate as part of the supply chain, fostering a diverse business ecosystem. Engaging in this procurement could position businesses to expand their service offerings, leverage new networks, and strengthen their presence in public sector markets.
