Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The West Midlands Combined Authority recently concluded a public procurement process for the "East Birmingham and North Solihull Mass Rapid Transit Study," focusing on transport modelling services. This initiative falls under the category of highways consultancy services and takes place within the West Midlands region, United Kingdom. Utilising a call-off from a Crown Commercial Services framework agreement, this tender followed the Procurement Contract Regulations 2015, under a selective method. The procurement stage has reached completion, with the contract awarded on 28th May 2026. The contract period is set from 29th June 2026 to 29th June 2027, and the project budget totals £418,821.11.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for firms in the transport and infrastructure sectors to contribute to the development of a key urban transit initiative. While the awarded supplier, MOTT MACDONALD LIMITED, is a large-scale entity, businesses equipped with expertise in transport modelling and consultancy services could leverage such opportunities to partner or subcontract in future projects. The framework's selective procurement approach benefits companies with prior experience or affiliations within the Crown Commercial Services network. Although this specific contract does not emphasise SME or VCSE suitability, it underscores the potential for industry leaders to assert their capabilities in supporting public transport developments in the West Midlands.
