Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Transport (DfTc) is seeking consultancy services, with the latest tender titled "TROP0042 - Provision of Consultancy (Contract Variation)" valued at £4,675,000. This direct procurement method involves a single tender action below the threshold. The contract, which has been extended by one month, is set to conclude on 30th June 2021, following its original term that began on 12th December 2020. The services are classified under executive services, and delivery is required across various locations, including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in consultancy services, particularly those experienced in working with government bodies. The successful supplier, L.E.K Consulting LLP, has already been engaged, indicating that competition may be limited for this specific variation. However, similar contracts in the procurement pipeline could emerge in the future, making it essential for firms in strategic consultancy to stay alert for upcoming opportunities as they align with the government's continuous need for expert advice in transport and executive services.
