## Summary

Middlesbrough Council procured specialist quantity surveying services for the proposed Longland Road Bridge project in Middlesbrough. The work was to develop a robust and defensible cost estimate to support the Council’s Department for Transport funding application. This is a professional services requirement within the construction, engineering and inspection sector, with an associated research and development and consultancy element. The requirement relates to cost estimating and quantity surveying for a bridge project rather than construction of the bridge itself. It would suit firms providing specialist commercial, cost and project advisory services for transport or civil engineering infrastructure, particularly those able to support public-sector business cases and funding submissions.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award below the threshold, without competition. AtkinsRéalis UK Limited was selected as the supplier, with the award recorded as active. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and runs from 15 July 2026 to 13 July 2027. Its value is £83,333.33 excluding VAT, or £100,000 including VAT. The stated requirement supported a Department for Transport funding application submission deadline of 31 July. The procurement comprised one lot covering the quantity surveying services for the Longland Road Bridge project. No competitive evaluation basis is stated because the contract was awarded directly without competition.

This award provides a clear indication of Middlesbrough Council’s demand for specialist quantity surveying and cost consultancy on major transport infrastructure. A credible future competitor would need strong bridge, civil engineering or wider infrastructure cost-estimating capability, with the ability to produce robust and defensible estimates for public-sector decision-making. Experience supporting Department for Transport funding applications or comparable transport business cases would be relevant, as would the capacity to deliver technically reliable advice within a defined project timetable. Firms should be able to demonstrate the professional expertise, quality assurance and commercial judgement needed to advise on infrastructure costs where estimates may be scrutinised by funding bodies and public authorities.
