UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of London Corporation, under the banner of The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, is preparing a procurement process for an Integrated Facilities Management (IFM) Framework. This process is in the planning update stage and spans services within the facilities management category, with the aim to enhance both hard and soft FM services, integrating contract management and digital platforms. The procurement is valued at £550 million, with an anticipated gross value of £660 million, and will cover regional and national delivery across diverse portfolios. The procurement notice is expected to be published by 30th August 2027, with the framework contract period projected from 1st October 2028 to 30th September 2032. This process is intended to provide a scalable and compliant route to market for full outsourced IFM delivery, reflecting differing operational characteristics and service requirements.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in facilities management services, including SMEs and VCSEs. Companies with expertise in mechanical and electrical maintenance, fabric and building engineering services, as well as those providing security, cleaning, and grounds maintenance are particularly well-suited to compete. The framework’s end-to-end service integration and flexible call-off arrangements accommodate varying organisational scales, offering potential suppliers the chance to secure long-term contracts and expand their service offerings. Engaging in this competitive process could allow businesses to enhance their market presence and diversify their client base within the public sector.

Notice Title

Integrated Facilities Management (IFM) Framework

Notice Description

The framework will be structured to deliver integrated facilities management (IFM) services, with lotting aligned to defined estate portfolio types to reflect differing operational characteristics and service requirements.

It will enable regional and national delivery across diverse estate portfolios and support flexible call-off arrangements aligned to organisational scale, complexity and operational needs, providing a compliant and scalable route to market for full outsourced IFM delivery.
