## Summary

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is initiating the DWP Estates Contractor Framework, which aims to establish a comprehensive system for Minor Works and Capital Projects across its national network of over 700 Job Centre Plus offices and Corporate Centre offices. The tender process follows an open procurement method and includes a contract value of approximately £375 million GBP. This framework is set to be available for use by government departments and public sector entities with similar project requirements across the UK starting from April 1, 2018, with stated access for other public sector bodies. Key dates include a final contract period running until March 31, 2022.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction companies, particularly those specialising in refurbishment and minor building works, to engage with a highly visible and necessary government undertaking. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as low value, high volume projects within the framework will also be managed through DWP's Facilities Management provider. Businesses with expertise in fit-out, repairs, and refurbishment of public service facilities will be particularly well-suited to compete for the awarded contracts.

## Notice

The framework will support DWP's Estate of a national network of Job Centre Plus Offices, which are similar in nature to a retail shop with 'over the counter'style service provision.
