Professional Services Framework - Engineering Consultancy Services

Transport for London · Public undertaking

In brief

Transport for London has announced plans to buy architecture and engineering 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 £120,000,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 4 years, up to 7 years with extensions, starting 31 July 2027.

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 low: a median of 2 bids per contract for this buyer (from 72 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 £120,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Transport for London's current Professional Services Framework for Engineering Consultancy Services is expiring in July 2027, this is TfL's primary route for engaging externally for both short term and long term project delivery.
