Summary of the contracting process

York & North Yorkshire Combined Authority is seeking transport systems consultancy services to develop and sustain a pipeline of transport schemes supporting its transport objectives and policies. The work covers four activities: creating a multi-criteria assessment framework, assessing schemes, identifying development funding, and preparing the Local Transport Delivery Plan. The buying organisation is City of York Council. Delivery is in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. This is a professional advisory requirement for organisations able to support public-sector transport planning from early scheme appraisal through to delivery planning. It would suit consultancies working across transport strategy, infrastructure appraisal, investment planning and local transport policy, rather than suppliers providing physical construction, vehicles or routine operational transport services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 2 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded on 3 July 2026 to Steer Davies & Gleave Limited for £57,060, with a contract period from 6 July 2026 to 30 October 2026. The award is active. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and was considered suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier will undertake the transport pipeline support activities for City of York Council. The award value and period relate to this call-off; they should not be interpreted as a wider framework value or a longer-term programme commitment.

This award provides a clear example of the capability City of York Council uses for transport pipeline development: a consultancy able to combine multi-criteria assessment, scheme appraisal, development-funding research and local transport delivery planning. A credible competitor would need experience turning transport objectives and policy into a prioritised, evidence-based programme of schemes, with strong analytical and strategic advisory skills. It would also need to understand public-sector funding routes and how schemes progress from assessment into delivery plans. The requirement was identified as suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist consultancy could be relevant where it can demonstrate the necessary transport planning expertise, capacity and public-sector delivery understanding. The call-off route also shows that framework access can be important for pursuing this buyer’s comparable consultancy requirements.
