UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Coventry City Council is planning a procurement process titled "COV - PIPELINE - Professional Service Secondees," aimed at acquiring professional consultancy services for secondments and tender work packages within the Council's Transport and Highways division. This initiative falls under the services procurement category, specifically focusing on business and management consultancy. The planned procurement, valued at £5,259,600 gross (£4,383,000 net), is set to begin with a contract period from 1st September 2025 to 31st August 2028. A future notice is expected to be communicated by 1st July 2025. This process is part of the planning stage, signalling an early opportunity for interested parties to assess potential engagement with Coventry City Council, located in the UKG33 region of Coventry, United Kingdom.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses able to provide professional service secondees, particularly those specialising in consultancy services related to business and management. Given the significant contract value and multi-year term, this presents a lucrative chance for growth, especially suitable for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) that meet the requirements of Coventry City Council. The procurement process aligns with public sector framework agreements, offering an opportunity for businesses to establish or further embed themselves within public sector supply chains in the transport and highways sector. Companies adept in securing and managing similar framework contracts will find this procurement particularly advantageous.
