Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council procured a traffic modelling study for the Frome Gateway Regeneration programme. The requirement is a professional transport-planning service concerned with understanding and assessing traffic impacts associated with regeneration activity. The work is delivered in England, for the council as the commissioning public authority. The procurement is categorised as a service and relates to transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation under CPV 34000000, although the specific requirement is a traffic modelling study rather than the supply of physical equipment. The named project is Frome Gateway Regeneration, so relevant businesses are those providing traffic analysis, transport modelling and related transport-planning advice for public-sector regeneration schemes.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Bristol City Council selected Constellia Public Limited, an SME, on 5 July 2026. The awarded value is £20,000, with an extension available for a further £4,999. The contract runs from 6 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 2 July 2026 at 12:00. The procurement used a tender process with the method described as “Other”. It was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active, and the requirement was evaluated as a completed procurement for the traffic modelling study. The award outcome provides a reference point for the council’s appointed supplier and the service purchased.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Bristol City Council for specialist traffic modelling to support a named regeneration programme. It is relevant to consultancies and specialist SMEs able to undertake transport analysis for public-sector development and regeneration projects. A credible future competitor would need people with practical traffic-modelling and transport-planning capability, the ability to understand regeneration proposals and assess their transport implications, and sufficient capacity to deliver a defined study for a local authority. Experience of producing clear, evidence-based technical advice for council decision-making would strengthen a supplier’s position. The opportunity was also identified as suitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that organisations of those types could compete where they possess the required specialist expertise and delivery capacity.
