In plain English

Coventry City Council is building a framework (pre-approved supplier list) of design teams to help with school expansion projects and other council capital projects. They want multi-disciplinary design consultants on standby to provide design services when needed.

What the buyer wants

• Provide multi-disciplinary design team services (architects, engineers, project managers, etc.) for school expansion and capital projects • Be available on a framework agreement so the council can call off your services as projects arise • Support various council service areas with design consultancy for capital works

Likely requirements

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

This contract is for professional design consultants (architects, engineers, surveyors). If you are a builder, electrician, plumber, or tradesperson rather than a design professional, you will not be eligible. The estimated contract value of £5 million also means you need significant financial backing, insurance, and proven experience on large projects.

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.
