UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Greater Manchester Combined Authority commissioned project management support for the Old Trafford Regeneration Mayoral Development Corporation programme. The work covers identifying credible early wins and establishing a clear route through the programme’s utilities requirements. This is consultancy and business support work, within business services (CPV 79000000), rather than construction delivery itself. The stated delivery location is Greater Manchester, in the United Kingdom. The requirement is focused on helping the regeneration programme make practical progress and navigate utilities needs; the buying organisation is Greater Manchester Combined Authority.

The procurement is complete and awarded to SHIFT Project Management Limited. It was a direct award without competition, using a below-threshold route. The contract was signed on 15 October 2026 and runs from 15 October 2026 to 29 January 2027. Its value is £29,700 excluding VAT (£35,640 including VAT). The procurement was arranged as a single lot. The published outcome identifies the project management support requirement and the selected supplier, but gives no separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis; the route was a direct award rather than a competitive evaluation.

For suppliers interested in future work of this kind, the requirement demonstrates demand from Greater Manchester Combined Authority for focused project management support on a major regeneration programme. A credible competitor would need to show the ability to identify practical early wins, establish workable routes through complex utilities requirements, and provide clear programme-level project management advice. The scale is a short, specialist consultancy assignment rather than a large delivery contract, so relevant expertise and the ability to produce useful recommendations quickly are central. Experience supporting regeneration programmes and coordinating across utilities and programme stakeholders would be pertinent to demonstrating fit when this buyer next needs comparable support.
