CSW/WCC - Shared Professional Services Consultancy Framework Contract

Tender description

This was an opportunity for consultants with excellent experience and expertise to bring innovative solutions and added value to the provision of professional services and resources to three key West Midlands local authorities. Lot 1: The Professional Services Framework Contract will provide a resource to support a full range and scale of projects and disciplines, including (but not limited to) project and programme management, procurement and contract administration, flood risk management and engineering design. These Shared Professional Services Consultancy Framework Contracts are procured through a joint process between Warwickshire County Council, Coventry City Council and Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council (the Consortium). There is also an opportunity for other local authorities to join this consortium and these are as follows: - Telford & Wrekin Council; - Worcestershire County Council; - Shropshire County Council; - Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council; - Herefordshire County Council; - Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council; - Staffordshire County Council; - Stoke-on-Trent City Council; - Wolverhampton City Council; - Walsall City Council; - West Midlands Combined Authority; - Birmingham City Council. Please note that the value of £25,000,000 stated within this Contract Notice is the aspirational spend across the three Authorities, and any other stated Authority within this Contract Notice that may join the Framework. Please note that there is no guarantee of any work being placed through this Framework. Whilst the amount stated above is aspirational, the estimated spend over the four year term within the Councils currently proposed to use the Framework from its establishment (WCC, SMBC, CCC) is closer to £16,000,000 based on previous activity. However, as stated above, this is only an estimate, and there is no guarantee of any work being placed through this Framework.
