UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council, acting on behalf of the Humber Bridge Board, procured client support consultancy for the Barrier Safety Improvement Scheme at Kingston upon Hull. The work concerns safety improvements to bridge barriers and is associated with bridge-inspection services, with works-related elements also classified. It sits within the council’s ERPS framework for complex bridges, Lot 1c. The requirement is therefore relevant to engineering consultancies and specialist bridge professionals able to support a bridge owner or public authority with safety improvement programmes, inspection-related advice and client-side technical services. The delivery location is Kingston upon Hull, making local knowledge of the Humber Bridge and the surrounding infrastructure potentially useful, although the published requirement is focused on the specific scheme rather than general construction or routine maintenance.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Roughan & O’Donovan UK Limited. Hull City Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under special circumstances through ERPS Framework Lot 1c for complex bridges. The award date was 27 July 2026. The contract was signed on 27 July 2026 and runs from 28 July 2026 to 18 October 2027. Its awarded value is £69,914 excluding tax, or £83,897 including tax. There was one completed lot and one active award. Evaluation was not conducted through a competitive tender: the selected supplier was appointed directly under the framework route. The outcome indicates a single-supplier consultancy engagement for the Barrier Safety Improvement Scheme client support requirement.

This award demonstrates a defined public-sector need for specialist client support on bridge safety improvement works, particularly where complex bridge infrastructure and barrier safety are involved. A credible future competitor would need strong bridge engineering and inspection capability, experience advising public-sector or infrastructure asset owners, and the ability to provide practical technical support across a safety improvement programme. Familiarity with complex bridge environments, inspection findings, risk management, design or works interfaces, and client-side project coordination would strengthen a supplier’s position. The route used also matters commercially: this buyer accessed an existing ERPS framework lot for complex bridges and made a direct award without competition. Suppliers seeking comparable work with Hull City Council or the Humber Bridge Board would therefore need relevant framework access, specialist bridge credentials and capacity to support a focused consultancy commission.
