Kent County Council (t/a Procurement Services) · Local authority

In brief

Kent County Council (t/a Procurement Services) has announced plans to buy consultancy and environmental work. This is an early notice: there is nothing to bid on yet, but it tells you a tender may follow.

It is a framework worth up to £500,000,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 4 years, starting 1 April 2026.

Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Can I win this?

Competition

Usually high: a median of 10 bids per contract for this buyer (from 24 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £500,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Procurement Services are looking to create a local and national framework for the provision of Consultancy and Advisory Services. This questionnaire is designed to understand supplier and customer experiences, challenges, and expectations regarding consultancy frameworks. Your responses will help us design a framework that meets the needs of suppliers and customers to improve the procurement and delivery experience for consultancy services across all areas within the Public Sector. Scope and Lot structure is still to be determined, but the aim to design a framework for the provision of all Consultancy and Advisory Services required within the Public Sector.
