UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Post Office Limited plans a national framework for turnkey branch refurbishment and improvement works across the United Kingdom. The work covers enabling and decommissioning, surveys, design, project management, construction, installation, compliance and handover. This is a construction opportunity focused on delivering complete branch projects, from early assessment and preparation through to finished works and handover.

The procurement is at planning stage: the buyer has stated its intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. It expects to use a competitive flexible procedure for a framework agreement. The estimated value is £80 million excluding VAT (£96 million including VAT). The stated contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 30 March 2031. The procurement is arranged as one lot and is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The buyer expects the next notice to be published on 1 December 2026; this is an indicative planning date, not a deadline for bids.

The framework is likely to suit general contractors able to manage turnkey refurbishment programmes across a national branch estate. Relevant capability spans building surveys and design, project and construction management, enabling and decommissioning, installation, regulatory compliance and handover. Suppliers will need the capacity to coordinate these services as an integrated delivery, as well as to undertake building alteration and refurbishment work. The stated SME suitability indicates that smaller firms may be well placed to participate, including as specialist delivery partners where appropriate. Businesses with a track record in managing multiple work stages and coordinating a range of construction disciplines should assess whether they can support this breadth and geographic reach.
