## Summary

The Government Property Agency has completed a procurement process titled "NEC Licence and Membership to ICE," which falls under the category of Miscellaneous membership organisations services. This contract, related to the procurement of services, involved the membership to the Institute of Civil Engineering and NEC Licensing, with the main delivery location being Birmingham, UK. The procurement method was a limited procedure, specifically an award without prior publication, making it unique in its approach. The contract was awarded to Thomas Telford Limited, with a value of £18,822, and was signed on 20th February 2026. Despite the primary lot being cancelled, the contract award was finalised and deemed active.

This tender represents a direct opportunity for organisations with existing ties or capabilities in civil engineering membership services to secure similar contracts, especially if they can provide specialised licencing or membership provisions. Large or established firms such as Thomas Telford Limited, which provide niche professional services in the construction industry, would find these kinds of direct awards beneficial for maintaining steady business growth without the necessity of a competitive bidding process. This can significantly reduce the effort and cost required for participation while ensuring sustained engagement with central government agencies like the Government Property Agency.
