The procurement, classified under "Development consultancy services" in the CPV scheme, covers projects at Gatwick and Heathrow airports, with delivery addresses extending to several regions including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories. The process has progressed to the "Award" stage with the contract period running from 15th May 2025 to 31st March 2026. The procurement was executed through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement with a total value reported at £499,615.48.

This contract represents considerable growth opportunities for businesses skilled in the consultancy domain, especially those that can adapt to changing project scopes and requirements. Companies like Ove Arup, which is already involved as the supplier, demonstrate that large-scale firms proficient in delivering extensive technical expertise in development consultancy services can be competitive candidates. Although primarily suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, this tender exemplifies how strategic partnerships in the transport and infrastructure sectors can result in significant business ventures, particularly for organisations capable of managing complex projects across multiple geographic locations.

Notice Information

Notice Title

T0677B Third Party NSIP team Technical Partner Extension Scope B (Airports)

Notice Description

As described in S101.1, there remains a degree of uncertainly around many of the third-party projects for the interim settlement year, including those which are currently paused by the developer and the future pipeline of projects that may be managed by the Client. Additionally, while we continue to work closely with developers to understand any new requirements or likely changes, the scope of work required is dependent on the timelines set by third parties. Therefore, the support provided by the Consultant needs to be sufficiently flexible to strike a balance between being responsive and remaining efficient, including continued Client access to a wide range of technical knowledge and expertise in order to meet changing priorities. At the time of writing, the projects currently being managed by the Client, and are therefore likely to require support from the Consultant, are as below: AIRPORTS (WO Scope b) - Gatwick Northern Runway Project - Heathrow Airport Expansion
