Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of Wolverhampton Council has completed the procurement process for project management and contract administration services at their new Fleet Services Depot, offices, and associated parking in Wolverhampton, West Midlands. With Virtus Consult awarded the contract, the project will span RIBA design stages 4-7, involving the relocation and construction of facilities to accommodate future electric vehicle requirements. The procurement stage has reached the award phase as of 25th June 2025. The contract, valued at £62,500, is set to commence on 1st July 2025, and will conclude on 29th February 2028, following an outline planning application submitted in May 2025.

This contract presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in construction project management, especially those with expertise in managing design and build projects. The nature of this project requires businesses capable of addressing reserved matters and discharging planning conditions effectively. Companies that can provide innovative solutions for electric vehicle facilities might find themselves particularly well-positioned to leverage this opportunity for growth, despite the procurement method noted as 'Other' without suitability for SMEs or VCSEs.
