Summary of the contracting process

Glasgow City Council commissioned consultancy to develop its proposed City Centre South Bus Hub through RIBA Stages 1 and 2, building on earlier Stage 0 work. The hub is intended to connect with high-volume bus routes and projects in the City Avenues Programme. The aim is to improve public transport links for passengers, encourage more sustainable travel and support wider city-centre regeneration. The service is in the transport planning and engineering consultancy category. Work is for Glasgow, focused on the area south of the city centre.

The procurement is complete and a contract is active. AECOM Limited was selected for the single lot. The contract is valued at £93,969.14. The contract was signed on 22 October 2026. The competition used an open procedure, and the procurement was awarded through the Scotland Excel Engineering and Technical Consultancy framework. Three bids were received. The recorded information does not state a separate award date, contract duration or evaluation criteria.

This award demonstrates demand from Glasgow City Council for consultancy to develop a city-centre bus interchange from early design stages. Suppliers with transport planning and engineering consultancy capability, and experience taking a public transport project through RIBA Stages 1 and 2, would be well placed for a comparable requirement. Relevant experience could include connecting high-volume bus routes, improving passenger connectivity, supporting sustainable travel and coordinating proposals with wider regeneration programmes. The work also calls for the ability to build on earlier-stage project development. The contract was awarded through the Scotland Excel Engineering and Technical Consultancy framework, so framework participation is commercially relevant to suppliers targeting this buyer’s requirement.

Lot Information
