## Summary

The procurement process led by the West Midlands Combined Authority focuses on early design work for Witton and Aston Stations, targeting the Industry Category of project and design preparation, estimation of costs, and consultative engineering and construction services. The project, carried out in the West Midlands, United Kingdom, has reached the award stage. The tender was managed through a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, with the tender period ending on 31st July 2025 and the contract period running from 18th August to 31st October 2025. The awarded supplier is WSP UK Ltd, with a contract value of £29,991.

This tender provides significant opportunities for established consultative engineering and construction service firms to engage in projects that support large-scale infrastructure upgrades. Companies adept at delivering cost-effective design solutions within tight timelines will particularly benefit, as the project directly impacts transportation safety and event day operations in the region. This procurement initiative underscores the role of large, experienced firms in contributing to regional improvements and showcases how such partnerships can promote business growth and expertise in public infrastructure projects.

## Notice

To support decision-making by the funders at WMCA and in turn, to support AVFC in their decision to proceed with their stadium upgrade project, we require a costed concept design for Witton and Aston Stations to be approved through WMCA governance by October 2025. This design should demonstrate an upgraded and safe solution for passengers in time for the Euros and the longer-term commitment for upgrades to Witton station. In particular, the solution should mitigate the high number of pedestrians and passengers who occupy and block Witton Road post-event to improve the safety of travel through Witton on event days. This may include interventions at Aston and a complementary operating strategy across both stations
