The framework, which spans two years with an option for a 12-month extension, aims to replace the existing Estates Management Services Framework. This procurement falls under the "Real estate services" category (CPV code 70000000) and follows an open procedure. The tender is currently in the active stage with submissions due by 9 December 2024, while the contract period will run from 31 March 2025 to 31 March 2028. The contracting authority is based in Newcastle, England, with all operations to be conducted in English and under English law. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in estate management and related professional services. SMEs are particularly encouraged to apply as they can greatly benefit from this chance to secure a substantial national framework agreement. The requirement that the selected supplier be able to procure works up to a specified limit without prior approval adds an element of autonomy and responsibility that might appeal to larger consortiums or firms with comprehensive expertise in real estate management. Businesses looking to expand their footprint within England and those confident in maintaining high standards of service will find this tender particularly advantageous. ## Notice Homes England is seeking to appoint a PS18m (ex VAT for the 2 year period) national framework agreement for two years with an option of a 12 month extension, to replace the existing Estates Management Services Framework.
