UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Southend-on-Sea City Council procured a multi-modal transport model covering the Fossetts Farm, Bournes Green and Garons Gate developments. The requirement concerns transport planning and modelling to assess how different transport modes and associated infrastructure or equipment relate to these development areas. The work is for the council’s local authority responsibilities and is delivered in the Southend-on-Sea area of Essex. The procurement was structured as a single lot and the awarded classification describes transport equipment and auxiliary products for transportation. Businesses relevant to this requirement include transport planning consultancies, traffic and transport modelling specialists, and organisations able to support development-related assessments involving multiple modes of transport.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. Southend-on-Sea City Council used a below-threshold procedure, with the method recorded as unknown. The contract was signed on 7 July 2026 and runs from 7 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. The successful supplier is Mott MacDonald Limited, under an active award for the single lot. The contract value is £185,000 excluding VAT, or £222,000 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the procurement process that led to this award; the published outcome does not set out the detailed award criteria. The contract remains recorded as active, and the award is not cancelled.

This award demonstrates a defined local authority requirement for multi-modal transport modelling linked to major development sites in Southend-on-Sea. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical capability in transport planning, traffic analysis and the use of models covering more than one mode of travel. Relevant experience would include assessing development impacts, transport demand, network performance and associated infrastructure or equipment, while producing clear evidence suitable for council decision-making. Suppliers should be able to manage a focused assignment across several named development locations and work with a public-sector client. The successful supplier’s scale also indicates that established consultancy capacity and the ability to mobilise specialist technical staff are relevant commercial strengths.
