## Summary

The Department for Transport (DfT) has awarded a contract for the production of guidance documents as part of the Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) Policy Programme. The contract, direct awarded to CIRIA, covers projects providing MMC performance specifications and MMC IP management. The contract, valued at £60,000, started on 18/10/2023 and ends on 01/10/2024, supporting the government's infrastructure priorities.

This procurement opportunity by DfT presents a chance for businesses with expertise in infrastructure works consultancy services to engage in government projects. As a single tender action with a clear deadline, this contract suits businesses with capabilities in MMC technologies and construction sector experiences. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to explore this opportunity for growth and collaboration within the transportation sector.

## Notice

Accelerating how we embed Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) into government procurement and maximising its use across transport, will help to create the capacity and affordability DfT needs to deliver its infrastructure priorities. To assist with these priorities, this contract (TPPD3000) has been awarded to cover the DfT's contribution to two projects led by CIRIA - the Construction Industry Research and Information Associations. These projects will produce guidance documents covering MMC performance specifications and MMC IP management. The contract is direct awarded, for the reason that competition is absent for technical reasons - no other organisation has the requisite expertise, intellectual property and representation across the whole of the DfT Group's Key Major Infrastructure Projects and Arm's Length Bodies. The contract was awarded on 18/10/2023, and will expire on 01/10/2024. The firm maximum value of the contract is PS60,000, excl. VAT.
