## Summary

Merseyrail Electrics 2002 Limited has initiated a tender process for a General Construction Framework, focused on construction works, located in the UK regions of UKD6 and UKD7. This framework is divided into three lots: £100,000 to £1.5 million, £1 million to £3 million, and over £2.5 million. The procurement is currently at the tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 23rd December 2024. The framework will initially be let for three years, coinciding with the end of the current concession on 20th July 2028, and includes options to extend for up to an additional four years in one-year increments. The procurement method will follow a selective procedure under the restricted method. Key activities include project management, various construction and post-construction tasks, and associated utility works, with an emphasis on ensuring public liability insurance and adherence to the Real Living Wage for Liverpool.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the construction and engineering sectors, particularly those capable of handling extensive projects ranging from pre-construction to post-construction activities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are especially encouraged to apply for Lot 1, fostering further growth within the SME sector. The diverse range of required services, including utility, mechanical, electrical, civil, and landscaping work, implies a broad spectrum of businesses would be well-suited to compete for different lots. Successful bidders will benefit from a long-term partnership, potentially lasting up to seven years, providing stability and continuous business development opportunities. This framework agreement opens doors for businesses adept in delivering comprehensive construction works under stringent quality and financial terms.
