Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Road Safety Youth Advocacy and Empowerment Programme" was conducted by the West Midlands Combined Authority in the UK. The contract, associated with the road transport services industry, was awarded on 26th September 2025 and is classified under CPV codes 60100000 and 80000000, emphasising road transport and educational services respectively. The procurement was managed through a direct single tender action below threshold and has now reached the award stage. The programme targets the West Midlands region, and the contract period spans from 3rd November 2025 to 31st March 2026, with a total value of £32,000.

This tender presents a unique opportunity for businesses involved in road transport services and education, particularly those with expertise in youth engagement and advocacy. Although the tender was awarded to Stitching Youth For Road Safety, a large global NGO not operating as a VCSE, SMEs and VCSEs would have been deemed suitable had they met the tender requirements. Businesses that could develop innovative approaches to youth engagement in road safety, and who can operate within the West Midlands, would be well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders managed by local authorities like the West Midlands Combined Authority.
