This contract is part of the general management consultancy services sector and is located in London, United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through a direct method under a single tender action, and Agilia Infrastructure Partners Limited has been selected as the supplier. The contract, valued at £50,000, commenced on 22nd October 2025 and will conclude on 15th November 2027. The award stage was completed and published on 22nd October 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for firms specialising in consultancy, risk assessment, and project management within the infrastructure sector.
