Summary, notice description and lot information

Summary of the contracting process

The Crescent Academy, located in Stoke-On-Trent, has undergone the procurement process for its GEM (Good Estate Management) Framework, focusing on building and facilities management services. This initiative aims to aid educational settings in professional management and procurement related to school estates. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure under the legal basis of CELEX 32014L0024.

The process was actively updated, with amendments extending the bidding deadline to allow more time for suppliers, and the main place of performance was marked as nationwide, with regional divisions including the North East, North West, West Midlands, and others. Contracts under this framework encompass multiple lots for facilities management and capital projects, with awards already completed by 18 July 2025 for diverse services including total facilities management and capital projects of varying scales. This tender presents substantial business opportunities for entities capable of delivering services across several categories such as facilities management, construction, renewable energy solutions, and maintenance works.

Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and larger companies involved in construction, engineering, and management services are well-suited to participate, demonstrating capability in maintaining safety, compliance, and operating within assured processes. The regional division of lots allows organisations to specialise geographically, thus encouraging local involvement and competition. Lots are structured to include up to 10 bidders per lot per region, ensuring a competitive environment that fosters business development and market expansion for companies involved.
