UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Post Office Limited intends to procure a delivery management team to oversee transformation projects across its branch network throughout the United Kingdom. The service covers programme governance, managing contractors and suppliers, commercial assurance, health and safety compliance, reporting, quality oversight and coordination with stakeholders. This is construction project management and programme delivery support, intended to provide oversight across nationwide branch transformation work. The buyer is Post Office Limited. The planned procurement is for one lot, covering the delivery management service as a whole. Suppliers should consider whether they can coordinate delivery across a geographically dispersed network and manage the commercial, safety, quality and stakeholder demands of multiple transformation projects.

The process is at planning: Post Office Limited has set out its intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. The buyer expects to make an award under a framework through a competitive, selective process. The planned contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 30 March 2031. The estimated value is £12 million excluding VAT and £14.4 million including VAT. The procurement is planned as one lot, with no lot-specific split indicated. The buyer has not set out the evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements at this planning stage. The dates and values are planning estimates, rather than a tender submission timetable or confirmed contract award.

This work is likely to suit construction project management and programme delivery firms with the capacity to oversee transformation projects across a nationwide branch network. Relevant strengths include programme governance, contractor and supplier management, commercial assurance, health and safety compliance, reporting, quality control and stakeholder coordination. Suppliers should be able to manage these disciplines together across multiple projects and maintain consistent oversight across geographically dispersed sites. The buyer’s stated priorities make experience in branch transformation and complex, multi-project delivery relevant. Commercial and operational assurance, alongside robust safety and quality management, will be central to the service. The competitive award under a framework suggests suppliers should prepare for a selective route to market, rather than an unrestricted tender. Further requirements and the evaluation basis are yet to be set out.
