Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the "NEC4 Frameworks for Consultancy Services in Connection with Minor Works Schemes" involves several Health and Social Care Trusts across Northern Ireland, including the Belfast, Northern, South Eastern, Southern, and Western Trusts. This competitive tender, in the tender stage as of 4th June 2026, aims to appoint up to fourteen suppliers under NEC4 Framework Contracts, for services valued up to £5 million. The procurement method is a selective, competitive flexible procedure, with consultancy services needed for architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, among others. Interested parties should note the submission deadlines: enquiries by 25th June 2026 and expressions of interest by 2nd July 2026. The framework agreement spans up to four years, conditional on performance, with the award period concluding by 30th November 2026. The location for contract delivery is focused within the UK-Northern Ireland region.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities, particularly for consultancy firms specialising in architectural, engineering, and project management services. With a substantial total contract value of approximately £30 million, this framework offers a platform for businesses to collaborate with multiple health trusts and expand their portfolio in the public sector. Companies proficient in minor works, such as new constructions, refurbishments, and upgrades, along with compliance-related services, will find this an ideal fit. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) focused on innovative and sustainable building solutions, mechanical and electrical engineering, or health and safety compliance, will particularly benefit from effectively leveraging this procurement opportunity to enhance their market presence.
