## Summary

The procurement process pertains to Lancaster University, which is seeking to establish a Civil and Structural Engineering Services Framework. This framework aims to support a projected capital spend exceeding £159 million over the next four years, with an overall estimated contract value ranging from £1 million to £4 million excluding VAT. The procurement method employed is a restricted procedure, and the tender period concluded on 3rd May 2016. The contract period is set to start on 1st February 2017 and will extend until 31st January 2021, operating in the North West of the United Kingdom.

This opportunity is well-suited for medium to large-sized engineering consultancy firms that specialise in civil and structural engineering services, particularly those that can handle projects within the specified financial ranges. The framework, divided into three lots based on project value, enables successful operators to engage in competitive mini-tendering processes or direct awards for various projects, potentially leading to significant business growth in the engineering sector.
