## Summary

The procurement process involves Highways England, which is seeking to support the transition of the Lower Thames Crossing (LTC) project from the Development phase into the Delivery phase. The tender titled "1-1066 Support for LTC Transition Process" falls under the industry category of Research and Development Services and Related Consultancy Services. This selective procurement, through a call-off from a framework agreement, is currently in the award stage, with the contract period commencing on 15 June 2020 and concluding on 16 December 2021. The total value of the contract is approximately £819,939.92, and the initial tender period ended on 19 May 2020. The service delivery addresses include areas within the United Kingdom and several overseas territories.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in technical services and consultancy, particularly those with expertise in infrastructure projects. As the project transitions towards delivery, businesses that can offer specialist technical support are well-suited to participate in this process. Companies that have experience working on large public infrastructure contracts or those familiar with the complexities of such transitions stand to benefit, as the role necessitates collaboration with both the current Technical Partner and the incoming Delivery Partner.

## Notice

The LTC project is currently supported by a long running contract referred to as the Technical Partner. This wide-ranging contract was originally set up for the development phase of the project. The activity under the Technical Partner contract is now being refocused on activities to support the main works procurement and DCO process. Highways England (HE) is aiming to procure a limited volume of specialist technical services to support HE in the transition of the LTC project from the Development phase into the Delivery Phase, where a Delivery partner as well as the Technical Partner will support HE. The Delivery Partner contract is currently in the procurement phase. The work required under this work package will not be carried out by the Technical partner to avoid conflicts. This work package is for limited time period until the Delivery Partner for LTC is mobilised sufficiently to take over activities (expected late Q3/Q4 2020/21). In addition to supporting the transition some other services are included to support HE staff where the use of Technical Partner staff would create a conflict.
