Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the project titled "Support for the Siting of Semi-permanent Mobility Hubs/Structures" was conducted by the West Midlands Combined Authority, headquartered in Birmingham, England. This project falls under the industry category of Project Management Consultancy Services, with the contract being carried out in the West Midlands of the United Kingdom. Initially initiated as a tender under a selective procurement method, it involved a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement stage has moved to the 'Award' stage as of 9th April 2026, succeeding completion on 2nd February 2026. The contract period started on 23rd February 2026 and is expected to end on 3rd March 2027, with a total awarded contract value of £74,565.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in project management consultancy, especially those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), as these sectors were particularly noted as suitable for this project. The scope of work within the West Midlands offers room for local enterprises to compete effectively, driving growth and visibility in government contracts. Given the nature of the award to Waterman Aspen, a large company based in London, businesses within the consultancy domain can assess opportunities for participation in future frameworks or partnerships for similar projects as the requirement for expert consultancy services in public infrastructure is a growing need. This contract emphasizes the merits of engaging with public procurement frameworks for long-term business expansion.
