Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Bus Station Improvements Programme Support" was initiated by the West Yorkshire Combined Authority, based in Leeds, for consultancy services in the business development sector, specifically focusing on the economic, financial, and commercial aspects of two Business Justification Cases. This project is part of the Small Bus Station Improvements and Bus Stop Accessibility Improvements packages, falling under the industry category of business development consultancy services. The procurement employed a direct award method and reached its award stage on 13th October 2025, with the service delivery taking place in Yorkshire and the Humber. The contract period spans from 13th October 2025 to 8th May 2026, with the consultancy awarded to Jacobs U.K Ltd for a contract value of £95,486.

This tender presents lucrative opportunities for businesses specialising in business development consultancy, particularly those with expertise in developing justification cases across multiple dimensions.
