## Summary

The "Automated Vehicles Policy Contract" was initiated by the Department for Transport in the United Kingdom, under the guidance of the Centre for Connected and Automated Vehicles (CCAV). This procurement process falls within the industry category of business and legal services, focusing on legal expertise and policy for automated vehicles. The project, located in the UK, particularly in London, has moved past the award stage as of 23 July 2025, with the contract effective from 24 July 2025 to 31 December 2027. The procurement was conducted using a direct method, specifically a below-threshold procedure without competition, indicating a bespoke requirement for the expertise offered by the sole supplier involved.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in legal consultancy and policy development, especially those with a deep understanding of the legal frameworks surrounding automated vehicles. Companies with experience in regulatory advice and the drafting of statutory instruments would be well-suited to engage in similar projects in the future. This particular contract, valued at £25,000 net, was awarded to Tamara Goriely, a large-scale service provider known for her proficiency in the legal domain. Her involvement highlights a clear demand for high-level expertise that can influence policy and regulatory conditions, offering unique prospects for businesses capable of delivering such specialised services.
