Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Minor Works Consultancy Frameworks for the Health and Social Care Trusts" is currently at the planning stage. The buying organisation, Belfast Health and Social Care Trust (BHSCT), is involved alongside other trusts such as SEHSCT, WHSCT, NHSCT, and SHSCT, with oversight provided by Health Estates of the Department of Health. The framework aims to secure consultancy services related to minor works schemes valued up to £5 million across various locations in Northern Ireland. A Pre-Market Engagement Information Day is scheduled for 27th March 2026 at South Tyrone Hospital, Dungannon, with attendance confirmation required by 24th March 2026. The tender, initiated under Northern Irish devolved regulations, falls within the services category and encompasses areas such as architectural design, civil and structural engineering, and construction management, with a projected contract period running from 1st October 2026 to 30th September 2030.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services within the built environment sector. The framework agreement encourages participation from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), fostering competitive potential across architectural design, engineering consultancies, and construction management domains. The projected gross value of £174 million underscores the breadth of work available, which can lead to substantial business growth and engagement in pivotal projects.
