Summary of the contracting process

The City of Wolverhampton Council has awarded a contract for architectural services, encompassing RIBA Stages 4 to 7, for the development of a new Fleet Services Depot along with offices and associated parking at Hickman Avenue in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The awarded contract is part of a project aimed at relocating various council services, requiring demolition and new construction efforts. The procurement falls under the category of architectural and related services with the CPV code 71200000, and the contract value is set at £60,000. The procurement stage is at the 'Award' with the award being made to Bryant Priest Newman on 25th June 2025, and the contract period commencing on 1st July 2025, concluding by 29th February 2028.

Businesses with expertise in creating detailed design and build drawings and specifications are particularly well-suited to thrive in this environment. The ongoing requirement for addressing planning and construction conditions as highlighted in the project brief indicates continued demand for innovative and flexible design solutions, presenting an ideal scenario for firms looking to expand their portfolios in public sector work, particularly within the West Midlands region. Furthermore, involvement in a high-profile council project could enhance a firm's marketability and credibility in the architectural services industry.
