Summary of the contracting process

Portsmouth City Council commissioned transport and highways consultancy support for the Portsmouth City Centre North scheme. The work is to develop an Appraisal Specification Report (ASR) to support the scheme’s Outline Business Case (OBC). It is evaluation consultancy work, delivered in Portsmouth. The requirement concerns preparation of appraisal material for a city-centre transport scheme rather than construction works or supply of goods.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Stantec UK Limited. It was run as a below-threshold procurement. The contract was signed on 31 October 2025 and runs from 31 October 2025 to 1 June 2027. Its value is £50,000 including VAT. The procurement was organised as one lot. The available details do not give a separate award date or explain the evaluation basis.

This award demonstrates demand from Portsmouth City Council for consultancy capable of developing appraisal specifications that support a transport scheme’s Outline Business Case. Suppliers well placed for a comparable requirement would bring experience in transport and highways appraisal and in preparing structured business-case support for public-sector schemes. The work is a focused consultancy commission rather than a major infrastructure delivery contract, so credibility depends on relevant analytical and report-development capability.
