## Summary

The Academy Transformation Trust, based in Sutton Coldfield, is currently engaged in a public procurement process for the "Total Facilities Management Solution" contract, which is set in the facilities management services industry. The procurement is in the award stage, with a previously signed contract worth £9,000,000. The main contract covers comprehensive facilities management services across 20 academies, encompassing preventive and reactive maintenance, security, waste management, and site supervision. The procurement has been conducted through a restrictive tendering method, and the original publication date of this opportunity was on 21st March 2022, prior to its completion.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses within the facilities management sector, particularly those experienced in education and capable of delivering complex technical services. Companies that offer maintenance, security, and waste management services, particularly those that can demonstrate a strong operational presence in the UK, would be well-positioned to compete.
