Summary of the contracting process

The Education Alliance, situated in North Ferriby, Hull, is in the planning stage of establishing the third iteration of the National Framework for Medium Works, targeted at the construction industry. The procurement process is managed by Pagabo Limited, serving as the procuring entity. This framework covers construction projects with values between £0k and £15 million, applicable throughout the UK public sector. Currently, Pagabo has scheduled a preliminary market engagement webinar for the 2nd of July 2026, encouraging organisations to express interest via the In-Tend portal. A survey to gather feedback will close on the 13th of July 2026, with the tender expected to launch in Q3/Q4 of 2026. The framework is expected to run from January 2027 to January 2031, with no extension option.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth across various types of businesses, especially those in the construction industry, by participating in a high-value public sector framework. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are specifically acknowledged as suitable candidates. Contractors with expertise in construction, site preparation, building, and various civil engineering works will find this tender particularly relevant. Participating in the forthcoming webinar and providing feedback via the survey will be crucial steps for interested parties to tailor their offerings and align with upcoming procurement needs. This framework aims to streamline public sector procurement in compliance with the Procurement Act 2023, thereby enabling efficient and transparent contracting opportunities.
