In plain English

Pagabo, acting for Red Kite Learning Trust, plans to set up a UK-wide list of approved contractors that any public sector body can use for internal refurbishment, fit-out, workplace transformation, adaptive reuse and estate modernisation work in existing buildings. This is an early heads-up, not the actual tender: the list is due to run four years from May 2027 with no extension, and the tender is expected to launch in late 2026.

Good fit for: Refurbishment and fit-out contractors, local or national, working on existing buildings.

Watch out: You must register on the In-Tend portal to get updates and, later, to bid; Market engagement webinar and supplier survey both close on 23 September 2026; Nothing is confirmed yet on value, lots or selection criteria - the tender is not expected until Q4 2026

What the buyer says

Pagabo Ltd on behalf of Red Kite Learning Trust intend to establish the first version of the National Refit Framework for Workplace & Interior Transformation 2027. This national Framework will cover a more specific scope of Workplace and Interior Transformation within existing estates and will encompass but not limited to, internal refurbishment, fit-out, workplace transformation, adaptive reuse, estate modernisation and occupier-led improvement projects within the UK for the whole of the Public Sector. The Framework will aim to provide the public sector with a Procurement Act 2023 (PA23) compliant procurement vehicle that enables the Public Sector to procure works from local, as well as national Contractors. It is proposed that the term of this Framework will be for a period of 4 years from May 2027, with no option to extend. Organisations are encouraged to express interest in the opportunity and receive further updates by registering via the e-tendering portal In-Tend here: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/pagabo/aspx/ProjectManage/1285 Pagabo encourage all interested parties to attend a scheduled Preliminary Market Engagement webinar on 23rd September 2026.
