Summary of the contracting process

The City of York Council is initiating a contracting process to establish a Mechanical and Engineering Framework, aimed at covering various disciplines to deliver M&E works across its buildings. This procurement falls under the industry category of building installation work and mechanical and electrical engineering services. Located in York, United Kingdom, this process is currently in the planning stage with a future notice date set for 29th June 2026. With a projected value of £5,000,000 to £6,000,000 and an open procurement method, the expected contract period begins on 19th October 2026, extending potentially until 18th October 2030.

By leveraging an open procedure, the City of York Council ensures a competitive and transparent process, allowing businesses to introduce innovative solutions suitable for public authority infrastructure, thereby driving business expansion and development in the region.
