Summary of the contracting process

West Midlands Combined Authority procured professional BIM coordination services for its Metro programme. The requirement is for a BIM Coordinator, supporting the coordination and management of building information modelling activities associated with Metro. This is a services contract rather than a supply of goods or construction works. Delivery is in the West Midlands, with the buying organisation based in Birmingham. The procurement is classified under business and business-related services, although the practical requirement is specifically focused on BIM coordination. It is relevant to organisations providing BIM coordination or related information-management support for transport infrastructure programmes, particularly those able to work with a public-sector transport authority and operate within the West Midlands delivery area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from the Midlands Highways Alliance Framework PSP4. The tender deadline was 1 June 2026 at noon. West Midlands Combined Authority awarded the contract to Matchtech Group Limited on 11 August 2026. The awarded value is £50,400. The contract runs from 9 June 2026 to 8 December 2026. The procurement record identifies the selected supplier and an active award. The opportunity was treated as a services requirement and was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published information does not set out separate lots or a detailed award-criteria weighting.

This award indicates a defined requirement for BIM coordination within the West Midlands Combined Authority’s Metro programme, delivered through an established highways alliance framework. A credible future competitor would need practical BIM coordination capability and the ability to support transport infrastructure work for a public-sector client. Experience of working within framework call-off arrangements would be important, as would the organisational capacity to deliver a focused assignment for the duration of a project phase. Matchtech Group Limited, the selected supplier, is recorded as a large organisation, while the requirement was not marked as suitable for SMEs. Suppliers monitoring this buyer should therefore demonstrate BIM coordination expertise, relevant Metro or highways-sector experience, and readiness to operate through the relevant framework route.
