Summary of the contracting process

South Gloucestershire Council procured quantitative risk analysis support for its Arena Infrastructure Project. The service provides quarterly quantitative risk reports to help the council establish project costs and understand, assess and manage risks affecting delivery. This is a professional risk and hazard assessment service for construction projects, delivered in England. The requirement sits within the infrastructure project environment and is linked to the West of England Combined Authority’s NEC4 Professional Services Framework 2. The work is classified under CPV 71313410, risk or hazard assessment for construction. Businesses relevant to this requirement include construction risk specialists, infrastructure consultancies and professional services firms able to produce recurring, evidence-based quantitative analysis for a major public-sector project.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was a call-off from the West of England Combined Authority NEC4 Professional Services Framework 2, using the framework’s stated call-off route; the recorded procurement method detail is “Other”. The tender deadline was 5 March 2026 at 17:30. The estimated value was £59,371 minimum and £71,245.20 maximum. South Gloucestershire Council awarded the contract to Stantec UK Limited on 26 March 2026 for £59,371. The contract period runs from 6 April 2026 to 30 June 2028. The published requirement identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, with no cancellation or termination recorded.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement indicates recurring demand from South Gloucestershire Council for specialist quantitative risk analysis within infrastructure delivery. A credible competitor would need demonstrable construction and infrastructure risk expertise, with the ability to quantify uncertainty, translate risk into potential cost impacts and produce clear reports for project decision-making. The requirement also calls for dependable quarterly delivery over an extended project period, so relevant teams would need sufficient analytical capacity, continuity and disciplined reporting processes. Familiarity with NEC4 professional services environments and public-sector framework call-offs would strengthen a supplier’s position, as would experience working alongside project, cost and engineering teams on complex infrastructure programmes. The requirement was suitable for SMEs, indicating that a focused specialist consultancy could be well placed if it can evidence comparable work.
