Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process, managed by the West Midlands Combined Authority, focuses on the provision of traffic management services including signage, maintenance, and temporary lights for specific junction works in Birmingham. The procurement falls under the services category with an emphasis on maintaining public lighting installations and traffic lights, identified by CPV code 50232000. The process has reached the contract award stage, with the contract signed on 15th May 2025, and is scheduled to run until 29th August 2025. The procurement method was 'limited', suggesting a below-threshold limited competition, which is intentional to allow more targeted bids for projects such as those within sub-central governments like the UK regions designated under 'UKG31'.

For businesses, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises, this tender represents a significant opportunity for growth in the public services sector, especially those specialising in traffic management and maintenance works. Companies that are well-versed in short-span projects with the capability to deliver effective traffic solutions could find this contract a fitting opportunity. Given the limited competition procurement approach, businesses with flexibility and experience in handling governmental requests or those previously involved in public authority contracts might find themselves well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in the future.
