Capital Works (Construction) Framework 2025 - 2029

Descriptions

The Capital Works Framework is a structured approach for managing and delivering construction projects. It is designed to streamline the process and ensure efficient project execution. The framework focuses on delivering capital works across the Cumberland Council's diverse portfolio. Overview of the Authority's requirement: To undertake construction projects across various locations within Cumberland with an individual project budget of up to £6 million. The Council reserves the right to advertise projects exceeding this value if it considers it appropriate. The projects are divided into the following packages (Lots): • Lot 1: General Building Works • Lot 2: Civil Engineering Works • Lot 3: Combined Building and Civil Engineering Works The Council is seeking to award up to eight contractors for each lot. Contractors will be appointed as the principal contractor for each project. Contractors must ensure they have the necessary capabilities to perform the tasks described in each work package summary. The framework is anticipated to commence in September 2025 and will continue for a period of four years unless terminated in accordance with the Conditions of Contract. The estimated total value of the framework over the total contract period is a maximum value of £175,000,000 but no guarantee is given as to the actual value of the contract.
