In plain English

Concertus Suffolk is building a massive framework to hire construction and building services companies across seven geographic regions and price bands, with projects ranging from £0 to £14m+. They want multiple partner companies in each region to deliver refurbishments, new builds, demolitions, building services, and related work under a £1bn total budget over the framework period.

What the buyer wants

• Deliver construction and building work (new builds, refurbishments, extensions, demolitions, site preparation) within your assigned geographic lot and contract value band • Provide building services including installation, maintenance and repair of mechanical, electrical and building systems • Provide architectural, engineering, and inspection services as needed by clients • Work flexibly under various contract terms including NEC, JCT, ICE, ICC forms or bespoke arrangements

Lots

Likely requirements

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

This is a giant £1bn framework aimed at 'industry-leading Partners': most small trades will be outgunned by large nationals, the insurance requirements will be steep, and you must operate specifically in your assigned geographic lot and price band (no flexibility) which rules out firms outside those boundaries.

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.
