London Borough of Haringey is procuring a new Construction Related Consultancy Services framework, with an estimated value of £120m excluding VAT, or £144m including VAT. The framework will run from 1 March 2027 to 1 March 2031 and will sit alongside Haringey's existing Construction, Estates and Property Professional Services DPS until that DPS expires in March 2028.
Haringey is acting as lead contracting authority and intends to conclude a Framework Alliance Agreement using FAC-1. Suppliers can review the Find a Tender notice for the full procurement detail. Thornton & Lowe regularly supports built environment suppliers with construction tender support.
Who should be interested
The spreadsheet category may suggest architects and surveyors, but the opportunity is wider than that. It is relevant to multidisciplinary built environment consultants, building surveyors, architects, project managers, quantity surveyors, BREEAM assessors, clerks of works, client design advisers and employer's agents.
The framework is designed to provide consultancy services across housing, education and general works, with different value bands to reflect the scale and complexity of future projects.
Lot structure
There are 18 lots. Lots 1 to 6 cover multidisciplinary building surveying-led services across housing, education and general works, split between projects up to £999,999 and projects from £1m to £25m. Lots 7 to 12 cover architect-led multidisciplinary services, again split by sector and value band, with the upper band extending from £1m to £100m.
The remaining specialist lots cover project management, quantity surveying, BREEAM assessors, clerk of works, client design adviser and employer's agent services, each for housing, education and general works in the £250,000 to £100m range.
Access and call-offs
The framework will be available to Haringey and to contracting authorities based in Greater London and the Home Counties. Call-offs will be made with competition. The framework levy is stated as between 2% and 3%.
This means bidders need to think beyond framework entry. They should explain how they will compete effectively at call-off stage, manage multidisciplinary teams, provide sector-specific expertise and deliver consistent value across different public sector clients.
