Crown Commercial Service (now known as the Government Commercial Agency) has opened bidding for the Government's biggest construction framework renewal to date, with the third-generation Construction Works and Associated Services agreement (known as RM6320) going out to tender at an estimated total value of £120bn. The pan-Government deal will replace and consolidate several major routes to market, including ProCure24, covering building, civils, defence, healthcare, nuclear, and oversees projects.
The framework will run for eight years, from January 2027 to January 2035, and will be open to central Government departments as well as the wider public sector - including local authorities, health bodies, police, fire and rescue, education, and housing providers. It is structured across seven core market specialisms, split further by project size and region, ranging from sub-£5m local schemes right up to nationally delivered projects over £250m.
GCA says the eight-year term is designed to support longer-term supply chain relationships, investment and innovation, in line with the Construction Playbook and Gold Standard guidance. Bidders had until 4th June 2026 to submit tenders, with award decisions expected on 11th January 2027 ahead of the new framework going live later that month.
