## Summary

West Midlands Combined Authority procured specialist consultant resource for a confidential, time-critical project. The requirement is for services involving technical analysis or consultancy, rather than goods or construction works. The buying organisation is West Midlands Combined Authority, a public authority based in Birmingham. The recorded delivery country is the United Kingdom, so the work is intended to support activity within the UK. The requirement is grouped as a single service lot. It is relevant to consultancies and independent specialist advisers able to provide focused technical analysis, professional advice and consultant resource for projects where confidentiality and rapid delivery are important. The scope is described at a high level, centred on specialist consultancy support for the Authority’s project.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. West Midlands Combined Authority used a below-threshold procedure, with the published method described as unknown. One lot was completed and awarded to THOKOZANI LIMITED. The contract was signed on 1 August 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 October 2026. Its value is £20,000 excluding VAT, or £24,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The selected supplier is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The opportunity was evaluated through the procurement process that led to this award, but the available outcome does not state the detailed scoring criteria or weighting. The contract is below the relevant threshold.

This award is evidence that the Authority buys specialist consultancy input for confidential and time-critical projects on a focused, short-term basis. A future competitor would need to show relevant technical analysis or consultancy capability, with advisers who can work to urgent project requirements while protecting sensitive information. The requirement suits a small specialist consultancy or larger professional-services firm able to provide consultant resource without lengthy mobilisation. Credibility would come from demonstrating comparable work, dependable delivery under tight timescales and suitable confidentiality arrangements. Suppliers monitoring this buyer should pay attention to the type of project support required, the need for technical judgement and the ability to provide an appropriately skilled consultant resource for a defined assignment.
