## Summary

The Freight & Intelligence Programme Extension contract, commissioned by the West Midlands Combined Authority, focuses on completing Phase 2 of the Freight Intelligence Programme. The awarded process, now in the 'Award' stage, encompasses services in the 'Transport systems consultancy services' category. The procurement, organised as a call-off from a framework agreement, closed its tender period on 18th July 2025, with the contract set to commence on 1st September 2025 and conclude on 31st March 2026. The initiative will be executed across the East Midlands and West Midlands regions in the United Kingdom, with a total contract value of £150,000.

This tender stands as a lucrative opportunity for businesses involved in transport consultancy, particularly those capable of undertaking large-scale projects, although it does not explicitly favour SMEs or VCSEs. The need for comprehensive freight analysis will benefit firms with strong capabilities in data-driven consultancy. WSP UK Ltd, a large supplier based in London, has been selected, indicating the calibre of business sought for this programme. Companies with expertise in rail and freight systems will find this tender aligns with their strengths, representing a growth opportunity in this niche market.
