UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bath & North East Somerset Council procured transport consultancy services to support the BWR Phase 2 planning application. The work sits within the wider construction and development consultancy market and covers transport planning input associated with the application. Delivery is in Bath and the surrounding Bath and North East Somerset area. The requirement was organised as a single service package for the council, rather than separate workstreams. It is relevant to transport planning consultancies and multidisciplinary firms that provide transport advice for planning applications, particularly where they can work with a local authority on development-related proposals. The named service classification is construction consultancy services, although the stated purpose is specifically transport consultancy supporting the BWR Phase 2 planning application.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Bath & North East Somerset Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. EVOKE TRANSPORT PLANNING CONSULTANTS LIMITED was selected for the single package. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026 and runs from 8 September 2026 to 1 January 2029. Its value is £31,385 excluding VAT, or £37,662 including VAT. The contract is active. The award covers the transport consultancy services connected with the BWR Phase 2 planning application. This outcome shows that the council used a non-competitive below-threshold route for this requirement, rather than inviting competing tenders. The council is the buyer and contract user.

This procurement indicates demand from Bath & North East Somerset Council for specialist transport planning advice linked to a planning application. A credible future competitor would need to demonstrate the technical ability to prepare and deliver transport consultancy for development or infrastructure proposals, with a clear understanding of how transport evidence supports planning decisions. Relevant firms are likely to include specialist transport planning consultancies and multidisciplinary construction or development advisers with an established transport capability. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller specialist business rather than only a large corporate provider. Experience working for public-sector clients, producing proportionate planning support, and managing a focused consultancy assignment would strengthen a competitor’s position when similar council requirements return to market.
