## Summary

Highways England is currently engaged in the procurement of technical support for various asset disciplines under the project titled "1-978 Area 10 Technical Support". This tender is part of the services industry, with a main focus on asset management as they transition from the previous Asset Support Contract to the new Asset Delivery Contract. The contract has a value of £44,975 and is set to run from 22nd November 2019 to 31st January 2020. The procurement method utilised is selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, and the tender period ended on 14th November 2019.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the consultancy and technical support sectors, particularly those with expertise in asset management and infrastructure services. Companies that can offer integrative knowledge and have the capability to collaborate with Highways England and appointed contractors will be well-positioned to compete. Given the nature of the contract, larger firms with extensive experience in providing similar services may find it beneficial to participate, especially since the reliability of expertise in asset risk management is a priority for this procurement process.

## Notice

Highways England (HE) is looking to set up a contract for provision of technical support across a number of asset disciplines, mainly structures, designed to aid the continued transition from the previous Asset Support Contract (ASC) to Highways England's Asset Delivery Contract (AD). This task will look to take invested knowledge, any new knowledge acquired during the previous task to seamlessly manage existing asset risks that traversed both the end of ASC 10 and start of AD 10 and beyond. The successful contractor will also be required to work with AD10 staff, Design Services Contractor (DSC) and SES, in handing over knowledge acquired. The asset knowledge, skills and expertise required for this task are discussed later in this work scope package. 25 Nov 2019 17:03 - Phil Vickery
