This procurement falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services industry, with a focus on enhancing the management of capital projects through data utilisation. The tender process is currently active and will close on 24th May 2017. The anticipated project start date is 4th July 2017, with a contract duration extending until 2nd April 2018. The procurement method employed is selective, utilising a negotiated procedure. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for construction and engineering firms, especially those with expertise in data analysis and project management. Businesses that focus on capital project consultancy, cost benchmarking, and lessons learned evaluation will find this procurement particularly relevant. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete, given the emphasis on understanding construction industry data and providing innovative solutions that enhance project efficiency and cost effectiveness. ## Notice Introduction We envisage establishing a Capital Projects Knowledge Hub (the hub) using data from our grant aided projects currently within our internal MI System. We wish to contract a lead Construction Industry company to act as consultants to specify and build that Hub. The key is knowing how to use the Construction Industry data we have to provide answers to the following three elements, not the IT development - a) Lessons Learned Element - this will focus upon capturing repeatable good practice from those capital projects that have delivered on time and/or on budget. Key lessons from those which have run behind schedule or over budget will also be captured. b) Programme Element - this will capture completed programme information from projects so that an evidence base can be created to check and challenge over-optimistic programme planning by applicants, grantees and their project teams in future. c) Cost Benchmarking Element - will provide robust cost benchmarking data for different asset types to assess the realism of an applicant's or grantee's project costs. It will also support more robust value for money assessments and provide data to inform value management/engineering exercises. Cost data will therefore need to be collected on both an elemental and comparable basis (ie per square metre). N.B. Further information is set out in the uploaded Quotation document.
