Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process, initiated by HM Treasury, focused on the "Future Services Guidance Design Service," falls under the services category, specifically design support services. The contracting activity involved designing, formatting, and editing guidance for PFI projects by the National Infrastructure Services Team Authority (NISTA). The procurement was conducted using a limited competition method below the threshold, and the contract was subsequently awarded with completion status as of 21st November 2025. The contract period spans from 18th November 2025 to 17th December 2025, held in the United Kingdom, and valued at GBP 27,601 net. Notably, HM Treasury, located in London, acted as the buying organisation, with Allied Publicity Services (Manchester) Limited as the awarded supplier.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in design support services, particularly those familiar with public sector projects. Due to the limited competition approach, smaller enterprises that meet specific criteria can effectively compete, fostering a more diverse business landscape. Companies, especially small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), that provide professional design services and have experience dealing with central government or public authority projects, should consider participating in similar tender opportunities for business growth and to build a prestigious client portfolio.
