Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Midlands Combined Authority procured senior commercial management consultancy services, focused primarily on BEE Phases 1 and 2 and Line 1 renewals and enhancements. The requirement is for a Senior Commercial Manager to support this programme work, rather than a broad project-management consultancy assignment. Delivery is in the West Midlands, with Birmingham identified as the authority’s location. The work falls within professional project-management consultancy. The authority buys these services to provide commercial management capacity for its specified phases and renewal and enhancement work. The procurement was led by the West Midlands Combined Authority.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to MATCHTECH GROUP (UK) LIMITED. The award was made on 10 August 2026, for £121,800. The contract period runs from 12 August 2026 to 12 February 2027. The authority used a selective procedure through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 7 August 2026 at 17:00. The requirement was treated as a single service package, with no lots described. Small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable to participate. The data gives no separate award evaluation criteria, so the basis on which bids were assessed cannot be stated.

For suppliers of commercial management consultancy and recruitment or resourcing firms able to provide senior commercial expertise, this award shows demand from the West Midlands Combined Authority for a dedicated Senior Commercial Manager supporting BEE Phases 1 and 2 and Line 1 renewals and enhancements. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate relevant commercial-management experience across programme phases, renewals and enhancements, and the ability to supply a suitably senior professional for a focused, time-limited assignment. The selected supplier was a large company, but the authority marked the opportunity as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that smaller organisations could also be relevant competitors. The evidence points to a specialist individual-capacity requirement, not a large-scale delivery contract. No specific qualifications or accreditations are identified.
