## Summary

The procurement process is being spearheaded by Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust, with Pagabo Limited acting as an agent. It focuses on the establishment of a new National Framework for Developer Led services to succeed the existing arrangement scheduled to expire in April 2026. This procurement is in the planning stage and aims to have the new framework in place from April 2026 for a four-year duration. The opportunity is centred around asset and infrastructure development services in the UK, covering a broad range from basic development consultancy to major development management services. Key industry categories include building construction, legal services, and real estate. Initial market engagement activities are scheduled, including a webinar on 30th September 2025, with an expected tender release date in November 2025.

This National Framework offers significant opportunities for growth to businesses involved in construction, legal advisory, real estate, and development services. The structured lots accommodate contracts ranging from nominal amounts to large-scale infrastructure undertakings over £100 million, making it accessible to both SMEs and larger enterprises. Public sector bodies, charities, and private organisations can leverage this framework across the UK, potentially allowing businesses to expand their client base and service offerings. With gross contract values approximating £22.8 billion, involvement in this framework could prove lucrative, encouraging extensive competitive engagement from a diverse array of service providers.
