UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Centre for Process Innovation Limited (CPI) is seeking consultancy providers for a closed framework delivering specialist advisory and investigative services across technical and professional disciplines. The scope includes root-cause investigations into accidents and incidents, operational safety and risk management, regulatory compliance, asset integrity, project delivery and organisational effectiveness. Providers will supply independent, evidence-based advice from competent, appropriately qualified professionals to support safe, compliant and effective operations. The work is classified as building, building consultancy and building-services consultancy, although the description covers wider technical and professional consultancy. Services are required for CPI’s operational requirements in the United Kingdom, with CPI based at the Wilton Centre in Redcar.

The procurement has reached tender: CPI invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It will establish a closed framework with one maximum participant, with call-offs made by direct award without reopening competition. Bids must be submitted electronically by 23 September 2026 at 12:00 UK time, with registration required on the stated e-tendering system to access documents and return a bid. The initial contract period is 8 October 2026 to 7 October 2029, with one discretionary 12-month extension, giving a maximum end date of 7 October 2030. The estimated value is £173,099.99 excluding VAT and £207,720 including VAT; the lot record presents the same figures in AED. Evaluation is 40% technical capability and investigation approach, 30% capacity, responsiveness and quality assurance, and 30% price.

This opportunity suits specialist consultancy firms able to mobilise multidisciplinary teams for complex investigations and advisory assignments. Strong bidders will demonstrate evidence gathering, analysis, root-cause identification, technical assurance, regulatory compliance, stakeholder engagement, reporting, and the development and implementation of corrective actions. The requirement favours providers with appropriately qualified and experienced specialists across the relevant disciplines, supported by robust competence assurance and quality-management arrangements. Firms should also be able to respond to urgent requirements, manage multiple concurrent commissions and maintain delivery against agreed scope, programme, cost, quality and service requirements. Business continuity, resource planning, mobilisation and performance monitoring are important, as is relevant experience showing that the proposed approach has delivered successful outcomes for comparable authorities or operational organisations.
