## Summary

Bournemouth and Poole's borough councils are currently inviting tenders for engineering consultancy services focused on improving construction and transportation projects within the region. This procurement process is being conducted through an open procedure, with the tender period closing on 31 July 2017. The estimated contract value is £32 million, reflecting a substantial investment in these services, with a minimum contract value set at £1 million. The awarded consultancy will collaborate closely with both councils, fostering a partner-like relationship to enhance service delivery from November 2017 through to October 2026.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for consultancy firms, particularly those specialise in engineering, architectural, and construction-related services. Businesses that exhibit experience in establishing collaborative working environments and successfully managing large-scale transport and construction projects would be ideally positioned to compete for this contract. The arrangement aims to integrate in-house resources with consultant expertise, enabling firms to leverage their knowledge within a structured partnership model that could lead to further projects and enhancements in local service provision.

## Notice

The successful single supplier will be awarded a separate contract with each Council. A fundamental requirement is the development of a tri-partnering-type arrangement between the successful consultant and the 2 Councils. This will further develop the continuous improvement and performance in overall service provision that both organisations have demonstrated under the previous professional services contract. A partnering type culture supports the establishment of a single delivery resource, nominally between the consultant and the respective Council but equally between the 3 organisations. This would be founded on the combination of the services of the consultant with the 2 Council's own in-house resources to work jointly on delivering a range of engineering construction and transportation based services, functions and projects. There will also be elements of the services that would require the consultant to provide a professional lead. Link to PIN: 2016/S 246-449459
