## Summary

Bath and North East Somerset Council procured services for the Cleveland Bridge passive bearings requirement. The published scope is limited to “Cleveland Bridge Passive Bearings”, with the procurement classified primarily as architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services. Related classifications cover research and development consultancy, environmental services, evaluation, safety, procurement and design consultancy, as well as public relations consultancy. The work is to be delivered in England. The requirement is therefore relevant to firms providing engineering or construction-related inspection and consultancy services, particularly those able to advise on bridge bearing requirements and associated technical, safety or design matters. The council is based at Keynsham Civic Centre, Keynsham.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Bath and North East Somerset Council used an open procedure. The tender submission deadline was 26 July 2026 at 23:59, and the award was made on 26 July 2026. WSP was selected as supplier for £20,000. The contract period runs from 27 July 2026 to 30 September 2026. The tender’s estimated value was also £20,000. The opportunity was treated as a services procurement, with delivery in England. The award is recorded as active, so the procurement outcome is established and the contracted work falls within the stated period. The available process information identifies the selected supplier and award value but does not set out a separate lot structure or evaluation weighting.

This award indicates a defined requirement from Bath and North East Somerset Council for specialist advice or services concerning passive bearings on Cleveland Bridge. A credible competitor for comparable future work would need practical capability in civil or structural engineering, bridge-related inspection and construction consultancy. Relevant supporting strengths include technical design, safety consultancy, environmental assessment, evaluation and procurement advice where these form part of the requirement. The buyer selected WSP, a large supplier, and the procurement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community or social enterprises. Firms considering similar work for this council should therefore be able to demonstrate established technical capacity, coordinated consultancy delivery and experience handling infrastructure requirements involving inspection, safety and design considerations.
