## Summary

The "Area 10 Technical Support" contract, initiated by Highways England, aims to provide technical support across various asset disciplines to facilitate the transition from the Asset Support Contract (ASC) to the Asset Delivery Contract (AD), effective from 1st April 2019. This procurement process is at the Award stage, with the contract period commencing on 3rd December 2018 and concluding on 31st March 2020. The contract has a total value of £124,680 and is classified under research and development services and related consultancy services. The primary delivery location for this contract is London, United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses seeking to expand in the public sector, particularly those specialising in technical services related to civil engineering, infrastructure, and asset management. Companies that are adept at managing transitions between contracts and delivering comprehensive technical support will be well-suited to compete for similar future contracts. The procurement method utilised is selective through a call-off from a framework agreement, enabling a streamlined process for suppliers who meet the necessary qualifications.

## Notice

Highways England (HE) is looking to set up a contract for provision of technical support across a number of asset disciplines, mainly structures, designed to aid the transition from the current Asset Support Contract (ASC) to Highways England's Asset Delivery Contract (AD) on 1st April 2019. This task will look to take invested knowledge from BBMM acquired throughout the Area 10 contract and any new knowledge acquired during this task to seamlessly manage existing asset risks that traverse both the end of ASC 10 and start of AD 10 and beyond. The successful contractor will also be required to work with AD10 staff and the newly appointed Design Services Contractor (DSC), post-April 2019 in handing over knowledge acquired.
