Upcoming

Minor Works, Facilities Management (FM) & Technical Professional Services Framework

Oxfordshire County Council · Local authority

In brief

Oxfordshire County Council has announced plans to buy construction and research 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 £133,333,330 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

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

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

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 8 bids per contract for this buyer (from 28 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 £133,333,330 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

The Council is planning on establishing a Framework for technical and professional consultancy for construction services, and the associated minor works and FM. This will be a multi-disciplinary, lotted Framework. The Framework will cover numerous disciplines, including, but not limited to general building/minor works, minor works on historical buildings, external maintenance including grounds maintenance, internal maintenance, consultancy design and build and street furniture design and build. The Council is intending to make this Framework accessible to other Council’s to use. We are inviting suppliers to engage with us on the proposal and structure of the Framework.
