## Summary

Highways England has recently completed a procurement process titled "5-069 Procurement Support - Corporate Services", aimed at enhancing its procurement capabilities. This contract falls within the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services, with a total contract value of approximately £32,261. The procurement method used was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement.

This procurement opportunity presents significant avenues for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to collaborate with a major contracting authority like Highways England. Companies specialising in procurement support services, consultancy, and strategic resource management would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the complex nature of the contracts involved. As Highways England requires additional procurement technical specialists to navigate an unprecedented delivery programme, interested businesses should be prepared to demonstrate their capabilities in managing sophisticated procurement solutions and contract strategies.

## Notice

However, Highways England is delivering an unprecedented procurement programme, which requires resource above a sustainable WFP. This involves: 1. Awarding over PS15BN of complex contracts using a variety of sophisticated procurement solutions and contract strategies, including competitive dialogue, negotiated procedure, PFI and Alliancing. The PS15Bn is delivered across 5 multifaceted projects, and all are required to be delivered concurrently resulting in competing resource demands. 2. Awarding PS5BN of transactional procurement contracts (under existing frameworks & new OJEU) required for business as usual activities. As a result of the unprecedented delivery programme and resource constraints, Procurement is seeking procurement technical specialists through SPaTS to provide support services, as well as procuring a strategic partner to provide a combination of capability and capacity to minimise the risk to delivery of key business objectives.
