Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process involves the West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) appointing Deloitte LLP to provide consultancy support for the Sports Quarter component of the Economy Transformation Scheme in the West Midlands. This initiative, titled "SENZ Project Consultancy Support", falls under the services category, specifically research and development consultancy services. It is a direct procurement method below the threshold, executed without competition. The contract is now complete, having been active from 7 May 2025 to 19 May 2025, with a total gross value of £30,897.60. The procurement stage reflected here is the award, confirmed on 6 May 2025, with the contract being formally recognised on 14 May 2025.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities, particularly for large consultancy firms specialising in research and development advisory services. The absence of competition in the procurement process suggests a niche and high-value expertise requirement, aligning well with firms possessing a robust track record in delivering specialised consultancy services for public sector transformative projects. Deloitte LLP, a large-scale organisation headquartered in London, has successfully capitalised on this opportunity, reflecting potential for similarly sized and skilled businesses to engage with similar future tenders from regional authorities across the UK.
