## Summary

This procurement process, led by Staffordshire County Council, revolves around the award of a contract for the secondment of staff under the MHA+ PSP4 Framework. The focus is on infrastructure works consultancy services, particularly in traffic and network management, supporting Highways Development Control within the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement followed a 'call-off from a framework agreement' method, a selective process, culminating in the award stage. The contract, valued at £250,000, was awarded to Waterman Aspen Ltd on 31st July 2025, with operations commencing from 1st August 2025 and concluding on 31st March 2026.

This tender opens avenues for business growth, especially for organisations specialising in infrastructure consultancy services and staff secondment within public sector frameworks. While the opportunity has already been awarded, similar future tenders could be highly beneficial for SMEs and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) capable of delivering specialised consultancy services in traffic management and infrastructure projects. Establishing expertise and capability in these areas would prepare businesses to compete effectively in upcoming frameworks and contracts administered by well-established councils like Staffordshire County Council.
