Official UK procurement notice
Engineering, Associated Services & Public Realm and Structures Surveys (E&S)
Authority: London Legacy Development Corporation (Public body)
What is being bought2 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionThe London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) intends to establish a new Engineering & Associated Services Framework to support the continued stewardship, regeneration and development of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park (QEOP) and associated LLDC-managed assets.
This multi-lot framework will provide access to professional engineering, technical advisory, and specialist survey services required to maintain, enhance and future-proof critical infrastructure across the estate. The framework will enable LLDC and eligible GLA Group bodies to commission services ranging from civil, structural, highways, mechanical and electrical engineering, through to topographical, utilities, ground investigations and condition-based surveys.
The procurement will be structured to deliver a flexible and efficient route to market, allowing the Authority to draw down technical support for planned works, reactive needs and project-specific requirements. The framework will replace the existing DCRCS arrangement and will establish a refreshed, competitive supplier pool with the capability to deliver high-quality, safe, and sustainable engineering outcomes.

- How the procedure runs: The Authority will run a two-stage competitive procedure comprising a Supplier Selection Questionnaire (SSQ) followed by an Invitation to Tender (ITT) for shortlisted bidders. Stage 1 – Supplier Selection Questionnaire (SSQ) Suppliers will submit their SSQ response, including all required technical evidence (ITT Submissions) for their chosen Lot. All technical quality will be assessed at this stage, with suppliers submitting: Lot 1 – Engineering & Associated Services: Technical questions (Lot 1 tab). Lot 2 – Public Realm and Structures Surveys: Technical questions (Lot 2 tab). This Lot is exclusively for survey specialists. During the SSQ clarification period, suppliers may raise queries on the draft framework documents. The Authority will undertake a full technical evaluation at this stage; suppliers will not be required to repeat this evidence later in the process. Shortlisting thresholds: Lot 1: Top five ranked suppliers (with the option to include a sixth if within 2% and scoring at least 60%). Lot 2: Up to two suppliers per survey category (maximum ten). Only shortlisted suppliers will proceed to Stage 2. Stage 2 – Invitation to Tender (ITT) Shortlisted bidders will be invited to the ITT, which will focus on methodology clarification and commercial assessment. No SSQ evidence will be resubmitted; the ITT will solely build on the defined scenarios. ITT submissions will include: Lot 1: Presentation of a case study, written responses (Sustainability and Sub-Contractor Governance), and day-rate pricing. Lot 2: Mock survey methodology and a fixed-price submission for evaluation purposes. Suppliers may refine or update ITT materials prior to commencement of evaluation.

Who may buy through it
Contracting authorities that may use the framework:
The Framework may be accessed by the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) and any other contracting authority within the Greater London Authority (GLA) Group, including Mayoral Development Corporations, functional bodies, subsidiaries, joint ventures and London Boroughs, where such use supports estate, infrastructure, regeneration or development activities associated with QEOP or wider GLA programmes.
Published description of the framework
The Framework will operate as a multi-supplier agreement, enabling LLDC and eligible GLA Group bodies to commission engineering and specialist survey services through a combination of direct award, quick-quote, or mini-competition, proportionate to the nature and complexity of the requirement. Prices will be determined using the Framework Rate Cards submitted at tender stage, with further refinement or task-specific pricing carried out at call-off stage.
For Lot 1 (Engineering & Associated Services), call-offs will typically be awarded on the basis of capability, capacity, and alignment with project scope, with the Authority reserving the right to run mini-competitions where required. For Lot 2 (Survey Services), call-offs may be made directly to a suitable supplier within the relevant sub-lot or competed among the sub-lot suppliers where appropriate.
All call-off procedures, pricing methods and supplier selection rules will follow the Flexible Procedure mechanisms established under the Procurement Act 2023, ensuring transparency, fairness, and value for money. Full details of the call-off process will be confirmed in the Invitation to Tender (ITT).

How this buyer will score bids.
The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Split |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Engineering & Associated Services | 60% | 40% | |
| 2 · Public Realm and Structures Surveys: | 60% | 40% |
- Price carries 40 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 4 points.
- “Engineering, Associated Services & Public Realm and Structures Surveys…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 15 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
The market share is a minimum: some awards have no bid count.

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.

- How it runs
The Authority will run a two-stage competitive procedure comprising a Supplier Selection Questionnaire (SSQ) followed by an Invitation to Tender (ITT) for shortlisted bidders.
Stage 1 – Supplier Selection Questionnaire (SSQ)
Suppliers will submit their SSQ response, including all required technical evidence (ITT Submissions) for their chosen Lot. All technical quality will be assessed at this stage, with suppliers submitting:
Lot 1 – Engineering & Associated Services: Technical questions (Lot 1 tab).
Lot 2 – Public Realm and Structures Surveys: Technical questions (Lot 2 tab). This Lot is exclusively for survey specialists.
During the SSQ clarification period, suppliers may raise queries on the draft framework documents.
The Authority will undertake a full technical evaluation at this stage; suppliers will not be required to repeat this evidence later in the process.
Shortlisting thresholds:
Lot 1: Top five ranked suppliers (with the option to include a sixth if within 2% and scoring at least 60%).
Lot 2: Up to two suppliers per survey category (maximum ten).
Only shortlisted suppliers will proceed to Stage 2.
Stage 2 – Invitation to Tender (ITT)
Shortlisted bidders will be invited to the ITT, which will focus on methodology clarification and commercial assessment. No SSQ evidence will be resubmitted; the ITT will solely build on the defined scenarios.
ITT submissions will include:
Lot 1: Presentation of a case study, written responses (Sustainability and Sub-Contractor Governance), and day-rate pricing.
Lot 2: Mock survey methodology and a fixed-price submission for evaluation purposes.
Suppliers may refine or update ITT materials prior to commencement of evaluation.
