Summary of the contracting process

The Tees Valley Combined Authority (TVCA), functioning as a sub-central public authority in the United Kingdom, was engaged in a procurement process titled "Project Lift Off Two." This initiative falls under the industry category of business and management consultancy services. Situated in Darlington, specifically at the Teesside Airport Business Suite, the procurement process involves the award and subsequent termination phases. Initially, a contract was awarded on 17th June 2026 to KPMG LLP for a comprehensive review of updated assumptions underpinning the business plan of Teesside International Airport. However, this contract was eventually terminated on 3rd July 2026, effective from 30th June 2026.

Despite its termination, the tender presented opportunities for businesses engaged in providing consultancy services, particularly sizable firms capable of undertaking business plan reviews for large infrastructures such as airports. With a gross contract value of £109,173.6, this tender could have provided substantial business growth prospects for capable consultancy firms. Moreover, the simplified procurement method, classified as "below threshold - without competition," suggests that future tenders of this nature might still present opportunities for efficiently navigating contractual awards without the usual competitive process.
