The work is health and safety consultancy, focused on assessing whether existing programmes meet relevant compliance and safety requirements. It is classified as a service and is intended for delivery across the United Kingdom. The procurement relates to the organisation’s RD CoE Compliance and Safety Programme. The planned buying route is through the Government Commercial Agency Framework RM6356, Construction Professional Services – 2. Suppliers should therefore be able to provide consultancy for public-sector or construction-related health and safety compliance reviews, rather than physical construction, equipment supply or routine facilities management. This procurement is at the planning stage: the buyer has announced an intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The planned approach is to use a framework agreement, with the opportunity marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The indicative contract period is 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030. The estimated value is £1,000,000 excluding VAT, or £1,002,000 including VAT. The buyer expects a future tender notice to be published on 5 January 2027. The planned procurement is a single lot and is classified under the light-touch regime. These dates are the buyer’s current expectations, not deadlines for submitting a response. This will suit health and safety consultancy firms that can review compliance programmes, identify gaps and assess the effectiveness of safety controls across a national public-sector estate or programme. Relevant teams are likely to include advisers with experience in regulatory compliance, programme assurance, risk assessment, governance and the review of documented health and safety management arrangements. Firms already positioned to deliver construction professional services through the RM6356 framework should be particularly well placed when the procurement progresses. The stated SME suitability indicates that smaller specialist consultancies may be able to participate, either independently or through an appropriate framework route. Preparation should focus on demonstrating credible health and safety compliance expertise, clear review methodologies and experience producing practical recommendations for a government or construction environment. ## Notice INTRODUCTION Procurement of consultancey for review of Compliance of Health & Safety Programmes .under Government Commercial Agency Framework RM6356 - Construction Professional Services - 2.
