## Summary

The City of Doncaster Council has recently completed the procurement process for a consultancy services contract focusing on project management, specifically for the reopening of the Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) by Spring 2026. This procurement was initiated through a direct award due to urgent operational requirements, with a contract period starting on 1st October 2024 and concluding on 31st December 2024. The awarded contract, valued at £142,897, specifies services to be delivered across multiple delivery addresses including the UK, Europe, and several other regions. The supplier for this contract is FP Airports Limited. The procurement process has already reached the award stage, with key dates including the award date on 20th December 2024.

This tender offers significant opportunities for consulting firms, especially those specialising in project management and capable of quickly mobilising resources to meet tight deadlines. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this tender particularly advantageous due to the Council's suitability requirements. The successful bidder is expected to possess a robust skill set and back-to-back arrangements to ensure the airport reopening proceeds efficiently. This project not only presents a critical role in revitalising the local airport infrastructure but also opens avenues for businesses to showcase their expertise and potentially secure long-term partnerships with local government entities.

## Notice

An urgent award of this contract is required for operational reasons. A procurement exercise was undertaken to seek an investment partner and operator for DSA and wider SYAC. This failed to obtain a partner on the commercial model proposed. Subsequently the Council have amended the commercial model but have retained the services provided by those parties who were previously part of the procurement to support the reopening of the Airport by Spring 2026. This contractor needs to quickly mobilise with the necessary skillset & back-to-back arrangements to ensure the reopening programme moves at pace and meets the operational start date. Failure to do so will result in additional time being expended at a critical point during the lease tenure.
