With a focus on a single supplier, it is ideally suited to small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can benefit from clearly defined contract terms without reopening competition. Companies with previous experience in the engineering services industry, particularly in structural appraisals, will find this engagement beneficial for expanding their business footprint and developing a stable relationship with the sub-central government authorities, ensuring a steady stream of work over the four-year contract period.
