Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

The UK government is setting up a large consultancy and professional services framework agreement worth up to £5 billion. They want to hire consultant firms to provide advice and support across many areas: strategy, policy, finance, HR, procurement, health, social care, and organizational transformation.

What the buyer wants

• Provide consultancy and professional services across multiple specialisms (strategy, finance, HR, procurement, health, social care, infrastructure, environment, restructuring) • Support government organizations with end-to-end project delivery, from initial options analysis through to implementation • Work across multiple lots: multidisciplinary teams (max £2m per contract), strategy and policy, transformation, finance, HR, procurement, and health/social care

Lots

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This is a framework for large consultancy firms, not tradespersons: you must be a registered consultancy business with proven experience delivering strategic advice to government or major organizations. Solo tradespeople (electricians, builders, cleaners) will be disqualified.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
