Notice Title
ABP Professional Services Framework
Notice Description
The Contracting Authority intends to establish a multi-supplier Professional Services Framework to support a broad range of project, engineering, property, and specialist advisory requirements across its operations. The framework will enable the delivery of services in support of major capital projects, regional investment programmes, and property-related activities, providing access to a diverse and capable supply chain. The requirement includes, but is not limited to: Project and programme management services Design and engineering services Architectural services Planning and consent support Property and asset-related consultancy Specialist technical advisory services The framework will be structured into multiple Lots and Sub-Lots, including both national and regional delivery models, to ensure appropriate alignment of supplier capability with project scale, complexity, and geographic requirements. Regional elements are intended to support local supplier participation and SME engagement, alongside larger national providers. The framework is expected to operate as an open framework arrangement, with the potential for periodic re-opening to introduce additional suppliers and maintain competitive tension over its duration.

"awardCriteria": {
"description": "A supplier may submit bids for all six (6) parent Lots. Where Lots are subdivided into Sub-Lots (e.g. \"a\" and \"b\"), a supplier may apply for either Sub-Lot \"a\" or Sub-Lot \"b\" within a given Lot, but not both. For Sub-Lots structured on a regional basis (Sub-Lot \"b\"), a supplier may express interest in multiple regions; however, a supplier will be awarded a maximum of two (2) regional allocations per Sub-Lot. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to apply these limits during the award process to ensure a balanced distribution of suppliers, maintain competitive tension, and support operational resilience across the framework."
