Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Ealing established a highways and transport professional services framework, with access for other London local authorities and the City of London Corporation through an access agreement. The work is delivered in London and covers four service areas. Structures Inspections involves general, principal and special inspections, reporting through a bridge management system, estimating remedial works and prioritising them. Road Condition Monitoring covers annual footway and carriageway surveys, condition ratings, maintenance programming and highways asset management strategy. General Engineering spans asset management, civil and highways engineering, development-related advice, traffic and transport, road safety, public realm, drainage, planning, project management and related specialist services. Flood Management covers flood-risk strategies, funding bids, alleviation studies, asset registers, modelling and planning advice. Services are called off flexibly as required.

The procurement is complete and contracts have been awarded through a selective competitive flexible procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. The award date was 16 February 2026. Structures Inspections was awarded to Project Centre Limited for £33,000,000 excluding VAT (£39,600,000 gross); Road Condition Monitoring was awarded to XAIS-PTS Ltd and Project Centre Limited for £33,000,000 excluding VAT (£39,600,000 gross). General Engineering was awarded to Project Centre Limited, CITISENSE LTD, Gutteridge Haskins & Davey Limited, Metis Consultants Limited and Pell Frischmann Consultants Ltd for £660,000,000 excluding VAT (£792,000,000 gross). Flood Management was awarded to Metis Consultants Limited and Project Centre Limited for £132,000,000 excluding VAT (£158,400,000 gross). Contracts were signed on 1 April 2026 and run to 31 March 2030. Quality accounted for 100% of award scoring, with economic and technical selection criteria.

This framework indicates recurring demand from Ealing and participating London authorities for multidisciplinary highways, transport and flood-risk consultancy, delivered through flexible call-offs rather than a single narrowly defined project. A credible competitor would need demonstrable capability in the specific service area pursued, supported by suitably qualified staff, robust survey, inspection, modelling, engineering, asset-management or advisory methods and the ability to produce professional reports and strategies. General Engineering requires breadth across highways, transport, traffic, road safety, development, planning, public realm, drainage, structures and project management. Flood Management requires local flood-authority experience, flood-risk modelling and interpretation, strategic planning and funding support. Suppliers should be able to work to relevant industry and professional standards, manage demand across multiple London authorities and support performance reviews. The framework was suitable for SMEs and allowed several suppliers in some service areas.
