UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured project management support as part of its MMDR North East consultancy services requirement for 2026/27. The work falls within highways consultancy services and is intended to support the council’s transport or road development activity. Delivery is in Leicestershire. The requirement was structured as a single service lot and was bought by the county council as a public authority. The appointed supplier is Bentley Project Management (UK) Limited, an SME based in Ruddington. This opportunity is relevant to consultancies providing project management support for highways, roads or related transport infrastructure programmes, particularly those able to work with a county council and operate within a framework-based public sector purchasing environment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 10 July 2026 to Bentley Project Management (UK) Limited. The award covers the single lot, with a value of £50,000 excluding VAT and £60,000 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. Leicestershire County Council used a selective procedure, with the procurement described as a below-threshold award under a framework. The call-off was non-competitive. A contract signature was scheduled for 31 July 2026. The award is active and the tender is complete. The published outcome identifies highways consultancy services as the classification for the awarded work. No separate evaluation weighting or award criteria are stated in the procurement data.

For a supplier that did not secure this award, the requirement provides a clear indication of demand from Leicestershire County Council for focused project management support within highways consultancy. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable capability in managing road or transport infrastructure projects, coordinating delivery activity and providing practical project management support to a public-sector client. Experience of working under a framework and handling a relatively contained consultancy commission would be relevant, as would the capacity to deliver services across Leicestershire. The award to an SME indicates that this scale and type of highways consultancy work can be delivered by a specialist smaller business rather than only by a large multidisciplinary consultancy.
