## Summary

The procurement process, administered by the Office of Rail and Road, centres around a consultancy review of the cost and schedule of large renewals projects within the road and rail sectors. This falls under the services category, specifically "Evaluation consultancy services," and it's conducted at a national level in the United Kingdom. The initiative, identified by the tender ID ORR CT 25-26, began in the tender stage and advanced to the award stage, culminating in a contract awarded to CPCS TRANSCOM UK LTD. The open procurement method featured an open competition below the threshold, with key dates including the tender period closure on 11 August 2025, and contract activity stretching from 1 September 2025 to 15 December 2025, with potential extensions. The initiative is backed by the legislative framework of UKPGA 2023/54, underscoring its regulatory compliance.

This procurement tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in consultancy, evaluation, and project management services. Companies in these domains could dramatically expand their footprint by engaging in projects that influence national infrastructure strategies and operational efficiency. The tender sought strong contenders that can offer cost-effectiveness, extensive experience, robust delivery capabilities, and methodological precision, thus being highly appealing to skilled consultancies eager to contribute to and benefit from public infrastructure enhancements. The structured assessment criteria, valuing cost, experience, delivery, and methodology, ensure that only adept enterprises can thrive within this competitive landscape.

## Notice
