Summary of the contracting process

City of Doncaster Council commissioned professional engineering consultancy to develop and prepare a business case submission to the Department for Transport’s Structures Fund for Kilners Bridge. The work covers feasibility studies and development of an outline design. This is consultancy supporting the case for investment and the early design of a bridge structure, rather than construction works. The procurement is classified as works, but its stated deliverables are professional consultancy services. Delivery is associated with Doncaster, with the council’s Civic Office address in Doncaster. The requirement centres on producing the technical and business-case material needed to progress the bridge project.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to AMEY OW LIMITED. The award date was 15 October 2026, at a value of £42,763.79. The contract period runs from 14 September to 24 December 2026. The tender deadline was 14 August 2026. The stated procurement method is “Other”; no further procedure detail is supplied. The requirement was presented as a single procurement, without separate lots in the published information. The council marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No award evaluation criteria are stated. The selected supplier is a large company, and the award is active.

For consultancies competing when this council’s bridge business-case requirement returns to market, the relevant capability is combining transport-infrastructure feasibility work with outline design development and preparation of a funder-facing business case. Suppliers would need to show they can turn technical assessment into a coherent case for investment, including the evidence and design maturity needed to support a Department for Transport Structures Fund submission. The selected provider was a large company, and the council marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises; this suggests the buyer saw scale or delivery capacity as relevant to the requirement, though no specific accreditation, staffing threshold or experience requirement is stated. The commercial focus is bridge-project consultancy for Doncaster, not general engineering or construction.
