Summary of the contracting process

Rotherham Borough Council procured consultancy services to create and shape a programme structure and practical approach for addressing a wide portfolio of contracts within its Regeneration & Environment directorate. The requirement is for project management consultancy, covering the development of an organised method for managing and resolving multiple contracts rather than delivery of individual construction or environmental works. The work is for the Council and is delivered in Rotherham, within the Council’s Regeneration & Environment function. The named supplier is Project One Consulting Limited, a UK small and medium-sized enterprise. This opportunity is relevant to consultancies providing programme design, project management, contract portfolio management and public-sector transformation support, particularly where they can work across a broad range of contracts and help a local authority establish a consistent, structured approach.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded. Rotherham Borough Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under a single lot. Project One Consulting Limited was selected. The contract value is £119,760 gross, in GBP, and is below threshold. The contract period runs from 14 July 2026 to 2 October 2026. The contract notice records 14 July 2026 as the signed date because a later date could not be entered than the commencement date; the contract was actually signed by the last party on 20 July 2026. The recorded procurement category is services, with the requirement classified as project management consultancy services. The published process does not set out a competitive evaluation or tender scoring basis because the route was a direct award without competition.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Rotherham Borough Council for specialist support to structure and manage a complex portfolio of contracts in its Regeneration & Environment directorate. A credible future competitor would need experience of public-sector contract portfolios, programme structuring and project management consultancy, with the ability to turn a broad and varied set of contractual issues into a coherent programme and practical delivery approach. Relevant capability includes diagnosing portfolio-wide problems, prioritising actions, designing governance and reporting arrangements, and working with council teams across regeneration and environmental responsibilities. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that this type of requirement can be delivered by a focused consultancy rather than only by a large professional-services firm. Experience of local-authority operating environments and evidence of handling multiple contracts would strengthen a supplier’s position when similar work is considered again.
