This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in architectural and engineering design, particularly those specialising in multidisciplinary services required for large-scale infrastructure projects. The initiative focuses on substantial design undertakings such as building layouts, service systems, and structural solutions for a modern health campus, which necessitates coordination across planning and delivery stages. Companies experienced with governmental projects and familiar with compliance and regulatory standards are well-suited to compete. The framework approach implies that companies already part of the framework might find an edge, enabling them to leverage prior government contracting experience to secure this substantial contract, fostering business growth through a long-term governmental partnership.

## Notice

Update: Since publication it has been decided that the most advantageous route to market will be to procure this requirement via the CCS DPS Construction Professional Services RM6242. As a result this requirement will be going via a PCR15 procedure. The Design Partner (DP) for Pillar 2E will provide multi?disciplinary design services for the main site buildings and wider campus infrastructure within the UKHSA Health Security Campus programme. While the specialist CL4 facility (H50) is being designed under Pillar 2D, the 2E Design Partner is responsible for the wider estate--covering laboratories, office accommodation, shared facilities, campus utilities, infrastructure, and supporting buildings across the main site. This requirement sits under the Pillar 2 Construction Professional Services framework and covers Work Package 2E, which includes detailed architectural, structural, civil, mechanical, electrical, and public health (MEP) design services for all non?CL4 buildings and campus systems. Under Work Package 2E, the Design Partner will produce technical drawings, BIM models, specifications, engineering designs, and coordinated design deliverables required to progress the main site components of the programme through assurance, gateway reviews, planning stages, procurement, and delivery. This includes designing building layouts, services systems, structural solutions, site infrastructure, utilities connections, and integrating these with the overall campus masterplan. They will work closely with the Project Delivery Partner (2A), Design Assurance Partner (2C), the H50 Design Partner (2D), and the Tier 1 Contractor to ensure all main site designs are fully coordinated, compliant, buildable, and technically integrated with the specialist facilities. The 2E Design Partner will also support technical reviews, respond to design changes, and provide design updates throughout remobilisation and full delivery. Overall, the Design Partner will ensure that the wider Health Security Campus is designed to modern scientific, operational, safety, and regulatory standards, providing the essential design capability required for successful programme delivery.
