Summary of the contracting process

Angus Council procured engineering and technical consultancy services for the feasibility assessment and design of an active travel scheme on National Cycle Network Route 1 in Angus. The requirement covers civil engineering consultancy work supporting the proposed cycle route scheme, including feasibility and design activities. Angus Council is the buying organisation, and the work relates to the Angus section of Route 1. The procurement falls within civil engineering consultancy services (CPV 71311000). The requirement is relevant to consultancies with experience in active travel infrastructure, cycle route planning, feasibility studies and civil engineering design for local authority transport schemes.

This procurement has been awarded following a competitive selection procedure under the Scotland Excel Framework for Engineering and Technical Consultancy Services, reference 0820. Three bids were recorded. Arcadis Consulting (UK) Limited was selected for the work at an awarded value of £15,000. The related contract is active and was signed on 12 June 2022. The evaluation was conducted through the framework’s competitive selection route. The opportunity concerns one proposed work package covering feasibility and design for the National Cycle Network Route 1 active travel scheme in Angus. The award was made to a single supplier; no separate lot awards are identified.

For firms assessing future local authority active travel work, this award demonstrates Angus Council’s demand for specialist consultancy to take a cycle route scheme from feasibility through design. A credible competitor would need to provide civil engineering consultancy capability relevant to active travel and the National Cycle Network, with the capacity to deliver a defined technical work package for the council. Experience in investigating route feasibility, developing design proposals and supporting cycling infrastructure schemes would be directly relevant. The procurement also shows that Angus Council used a Scotland Excel engineering and technical consultancy framework with a competitive selection process, so framework participation and the ability to compete through that route would be important for similar requirements.
