## Summary

The procurement process involved Leeds City Council as the buying organisation, seeking an Economic Consultant with Transport Specialism to support its Station Development team. This contract falls within the transport systems consultancy services sector, and the successful bidder will provide an updated economic report assessing the current position concerning the HS2 station in Leeds. The tender was awarded to Volterra Partners LLP on 16 July 2019, with a total value of £25,000. The post-contract period runs from 18 July 2019 to 30 September 2019, following the completion of the open procurement process that concluded on 1 July 2019.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for consultancy firms specialising in transport and economic analysis, particularly those with experience in major infrastructure projects like HS2. Companies equipped to provide thorough assessments and strategic insights in the transport sector will find this an ideal opportunity to expand their portfolio and engage with public sector projects while contributing to the economic development of the Leeds region.

## Notice

This appointment will support the Station Development team on transport and economic advice. ln 2015 Volterra were commissioned to provide a report to set the case for HS2 in Leeds and the City region. The report represents the evidence base for an evolving economic development strategy for the city region to maximise the economic benefits of HS2. Following on from the 2015 report on the economic strategy for a HS2 station in Leeds we require an up to date report taking into account the current economic position and some uncertainties about the prospects for the scheme.
