The award demonstrates demand from West Midlands Combined Authority for specialist consultancy supporting mass rapid transit and integrated public transport development along a major urban corridor. Businesses best placed for a future requirement of this kind would combine highways, traffic and transport expertise with practical experience of public transport networks, corridor studies and infrastructure development. Credible suppliers would need to work within a public-sector framework call-off route and translate transport analysis into deliverable mass rapid transit solutions. The selected supplier was a large consultancy, indicating a competitive profile suited to established organisations with multidisciplinary capability, sufficient professional capacity and experience coordinating complex transport planning and infrastructure advice.
