UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham Children’s Trust Community Interest Company intended to procure facilities management services for its property portfolio. The requirement is for ongoing management and support of facilities associated with the Trust’s properties, classified as facilities management services. The work is categorised as services and is intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. The Trust, a public authority based in Birmingham, is the buying organisation. The planned requirement was structured as a single service lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement relates to the Trust’s estate rather than to the supply of standalone goods, construction works or a narrowly defined specialist service.

This process is recorded at the planning stage, but the buyer has since corrected the pipeline entry: the contract has already been procured and awarded through an earlier procurement exercise, so no further procurement activity is anticipated and this requirement should be disregarded. The intended contract was expected to run from 15 September 2026 to 14 September 2029, with a possible extension to 14 September 2031. Its estimated value was £4,166,000 excluding VAT, or £4,999,200 including VAT. The anticipated route to market was a national framework, using a competitive flexible procedure. The planned procurement was above the applicable threshold and subject to the light-touch regime.

The requirement would have been relevant to facilities management providers able to support a public-sector property portfolio, including small and medium-sized enterprises. The buyer anticipated accessing the market through a national framework, so suppliers established on a suitable framework would have been well placed to prepare for the proposed route. However, this is not a procurement to pursue: the buyer states that the contract has already been awarded following an earlier procurement exercise and that no further activity is expected. Facilities management businesses should therefore treat this entry as closed for commercial planning purposes and avoid investing time in preparing a tender response or expression of interest.
