Tender for a Framework Agreement for the Provision of Construction Project Management Consultancy Services

This opportunity is looking to create a University of Birmingham Construction Project Management Services Framework Agreement with the ability to support other HE and FE Sector Organisations, Schools and Academies, and to develop local initiatives for University Projects. It is anticipated that the framework agreement will be for 10 years and will be based on the University of Birmingham construction project pipeline which is estimated to be in the region of £700m. The framework is expected to generate partnership working and to develop long term relationships.

The framework agreement will be made available for use by HE and FE Sector Organisations, Schools and Academies regardless of whether or not they are to be defined as contracting authorities (for the purpose of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015). Links can be found within the Information for Tenderers document.
