Can I legally use your frameworks?
Yes. The framework was procured in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Under the transitional provisions of the Procurement Act 2023, frameworks established under PCR 2015 remain fully compliant and legally valid for use for the duration of their term, providing a safe route to market.

Are there any membership fees to access the framework?
There are no membership fees to access the framework, and no additional costs for any service provided by the framework. There is a framework levy paid only by the supplier which takes a small percentage of the project value and varies depending on the value of the project. Please note:
- It does not affect project budgets as a separate cost line
- It does not require client-side payment handling
- There are no invoices to the client
To find out more, please contact info@procurepartnerships.co.uk
How we guarantee value for money
Are suppliers allowed to reduce their multi-disciplinary lead consultant management fee?
Yes, this is at the discretion of the multi-disciplinary lead consultant, but it can never be dialled up to be higher than their tendered fee, regardless of the number of sub-consultants they are managing.
What makes Procure Partnerships Framework different?
Our team is accredited in MCIPS, NEC and provides dedicated operational support. Drawing on extensive backgrounds in both contractor and professional services sectors, we can offer a unique insight into private sector procurement challenges. As a result, this has enabled us to create a structured, flexible framework that delivers exceptional value for money and drives efficient, cost-effective solutions.
How can the Procure Partnerships team support organisations with limited procurement resources?
The Procure Partnerships Framework team provides end-to-end procurement and commercial support for organisations with limited internal resource, acting as an extension of the client’s procurement function. Support includes market engagement, tender preparation and issue, management of clarifications and evaluations, and compliance oversight, with post-award performance monitored through Compliance Chain, including financial and supply chain health and enforcement via a penalty points system. The framework offers multiple compliant call-off routes, including single-stage, two-stage (including express), and direct award, all structured to ensure fairness, transparency, and regulatory compliance. The team provides guidance, documentation, supplier management, and publication of all required notices, enabling efficient, legally compliant, and risk-managed procurement and contract award.
How does the framework have a positive impact on the local regional economy & what is its commitment to delivery through the local supply chain?
The framework positively impacts local and regional economies through its division into regional lots, ensuring that contractors, consultants, and their supply chains are local to the project area, supporting regional economic growth and employment. Delivery through local supply chains within a 30-mile radius of project sites are benchmarked and monitored as key performance indicators within the framework’s social value and procurement strategy. Projects routinely surpass minimum targets for local employment and SME inclusion, contributing meaningfully to workforce development and local business sustainability. In 2024/25, the framework generated £117 million in local supply chain spend, created 398 jobs, and supported 2,442 weeks of apprenticeships. Aligning with government priorities, the framework actively promotes procurement opportunities for local SMEs, apprenticeship programmes, and social enterprises, to drive regional prosperity.
