## Summary

The Department for Transport (DfTc) has concluded a tender to appoint technical advisors for the rail contract projects, classified under transport systems consultancy services. The contract encompasses services across diverse regions, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom, with Jacobs U.K Limited being awarded the contract. This procurement process follows a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded on 26th September 2025, and it runs from 23rd September 2025 to 10th December 2026, reflecting proactive measures to ensure timely and strategic advisory support.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in transport consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in rail systems. Large-scale companies capable of navigating complex transport and rail advisory projects are well-suited to participate in such procurement processes. While this specific contract has been awarded, businesses in the consultancy sector can enhance their market credibility by engaging in similar opportunities within the DfTc procurement framework, thereby expanding their portfolio in governmental transport projects.
