## Summary

APUC Limited, a central purchasing body based in Stirling, UK, is in the planning stage for a procurement titled "Professional Services for Construction". This initiative aims to establish a national framework for professional services within the construction sector, offering services across three main lots: Lead Advisor/Multi-Disciplinary Provider (national), Project Management (regional), and Quantity Surveying/Cost Consultancy (regional). The initially planned duration of the framework is two years, with a potential extension of up to 24 months. Interested suppliers are required to submit an online questionnaire by 17:00 on 11th May 2022 to engage with this opportunity.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating in the construction services sector, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in fields such as project management, quantity surveying, and multi-disciplinary consultancy.
