## Summary

The West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) has completed a public procurement process for the provision of Commercial Management Consultancy Services within its Metro Team, specifically for a 'Commercial Manager' service. This process involved selecting Ridge & Partners through a call-off from Lot 1 (Built Environment) of the Crown Commercial Services Construction Professional Services 4 Framework. The contract, valued at £87,400.94, covers the period from 1st April 2026 to 30th September 2026 and is located in the West Midlands, UK. The procurement stage was at the award stage as of 30th March 2026, following a selective procurement method.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in project management consultancy services, particularly those that can provide interim commercial management support. It is well-suited for SMEs and VCSEs, which are encouraged to participate in such frameworks to gain exposure and grow their business with public sector projects. Given the nature of the consultancy call-off contract, businesses that can deliver specialist built environment consultancy and have the capability to rapidly deploy skilled personnel would be well-positioned to compete effectively. This could lead to further opportunities in the public sector, particularly with large entities like the WMCA.
