Summary of the contracting process

West Midlands Combined Authority procured principal designer services for EV CATS. The requirement covers planning, managing and monitoring the pre-construction phase, together with coordinating health and safety matters during that phase. In practical terms, this is construction design and management consultancy focused on risk and hazard assessment, including the duties associated with a CDM principal designer. The service is classified under CPV 71313410, covering risk or hazard assessment for construction. The buying organisation is West Midlands Combined Authority, based in Birmingham. The awarded service is recorded for delivery in the United Kingdom, making this relevant to firms able to support the authority’s EV CATS development with construction health and safety leadership and pre-construction risk management.

This procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed. TCC-CORP LIMITED was awarded the contract on 1 August 2025, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract is active from 1 August 2025 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £78,500 excluding VAT, or £94,200 including VAT. The award covers services for the CDM principal designer role in relation to EV CATS, including pre-construction management and health and safety coordination. The contracting authority is West Midlands Combined Authority. The published outcome identifies TCC-CORP LIMITED as the selected supplier for the completed requirement.

This award shows established demand from West Midlands Combined Authority for specialist construction health and safety consultancy linked to electric vehicle infrastructure or development. A credible future competitor would need to provide CDM principal designer capability, with demonstrable ability to plan, manage and monitor pre-construction work and coordinate health and safety matters across design and preparation activities. Relevant experience in construction risk and hazard assessment would be important, particularly where risks must be identified, controlled and communicated before construction begins. Suppliers should also be able to support a public authority through a limited, below-threshold competition and demonstrate the capacity to deliver focused advisory services for a defined development programme.
