ABP Professional Services Framework
Authority: Associated British Ports
What is being bought10 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionThe Contracting Authority intends to establish a multi‑supplier Professional Services Framework to support a broad range of project, engineering, property, and specialist advisory requirements across its operations.
The framework will enable the delivery of services in support of major capital projects, regional investment programmes, and property-related activities, providing access to a diverse and capable supply chain. The requirement includes, but is not limited to:
Project and programme management services
Design and engineering services
Architectural services
Planning and consent support
Property and asset-related consultancy
Specialist technical advisory services
The framework will be structured into multiple Lots and Sub‑Lots, including both national and regional delivery models, to ensure appropriate alignment of supplier capability with project scale, complexity, and geographic requirements. Regional elements are intended to support local supplier participation and SME engagement, alongside larger national providers.
The framework is expected to operate as an open framework arrangement, with the potential for periodic re‑opening to introduce additional suppliers and maintain competitive tension over its duration.
- The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 26 Mar 2034, 23:59 BST.
- How the procedure runs: Stage 1 – Pre‑Selection Questionnaire (PSQ) Applicants will be issued with a PSQ comprising instructions, requirements, and a combination of pass/fail criteria and scored technical questions. The PSQ will assess: Compliance, Financial and legal standing, Health & Safety, Quality, and Supply Chain approach and Technical capability and relevant experience. Stage 2 – Invitation to Tender (ITT) The ITT will set out clear objectives and evaluation criteria aligned to organisational priorities. Tenders will be evaluated on a technical and commercial basis, with a defined weighting split.

How the contest usually goes
Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
How often small and medium firms win.
Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
No supplier sizes published for this authority.
i
How often local firms win similar work.
Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.
Here, local means registered in Greater London.
A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.
No winner locations published for this authority. Local means a registered address in Greater London.
i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.
Middle value in days from the deadline to the first award notice, on competitions that published both dates.
Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards were announced within 99 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
No awards recorded for this authority in this market.
How many bids did past lots attract?
i
How many bids past lots received.
Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.
Past bids do not predict this tender.
1 bid0% / 2%
2–30% / 13%
4–60% / 31%
7+100% / 53%
How did awards compare with estimates?
i
Where winning prices landed against estimates.
Each colour shows awards below, close to or above the published estimate, one lot at a time.
On a framework or DPS, prices are agreed when work is called off.
Past prices are a guide, not a bid price.
Not comparable on a framework or DPS. The notice sets up a supplier panel and a ceiling value; what the work actually costs is agreed later, on each call-off or mini-competition, and those publish as contract notices of their own. The award-vs-estimate record of this market therefore sits on the call-offs; this page shows it on the contracts, not on the panel that frames them.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
