UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured consultancy services for the A511 Major Road Network programme during 2026/27. The requirement was for project management support, within the broader category of infrastructure works consultancy. The work relates to managing and supporting a major-road infrastructure programme rather than supplying physical construction works. The council is based at County Hall in Leicester and is the public-sector buyer for this requirement. The procurement covered one requirement under the A511 MRN Consultancy Services 26/27 title, with the service associated with infrastructure delivery in the United Kingdom. It is relevant to project management consultancies and infrastructure advisory firms with experience supporting major highways or comparable public infrastructure programmes.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Leicestershire County Council used a selective, below-threshold award under an existing framework, without a competitive process for this call-off. Bentley Project Management (UK) Limited was awarded the contract on 10 July 2026. The award value is £170,610 excluding VAT, or £217,732 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027, with signature scheduled by 31 July 2026. The award relates to a single lot and is for consultancy services classified as infrastructure works consultancy. The published outcome records the selected supplier and confirms that the tender reached completion.

This award indicates demand from Leicestershire County Council for external project management support on major-road infrastructure work. Competitors seeking similar work with this buyer would need credible capability in infrastructure project management and consultancy, with an understanding of major road programmes and the governance, coordination and delivery support they require. Experience working with public-sector clients and within framework arrangements would be commercially relevant, because this requirement was awarded through a framework rather than an open competition. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist consultancy rather than only a large national firm. Firms should be able to demonstrate suitably experienced project-management teams and relevant highways or infrastructure delivery experience.
