ABP Professional Services Framework

  • ASSOCIATED BRITISH PORTS

Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-06d13d

Description

The 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

Environmental 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.
