Transportation and Infrastructure Professional Services Framework

Birmingham City Council is seeking to appoint organisations for the provision of technical professional services via the Transportation and Infrastructure Professional Services Framework Agreement. The Framework Contract requires consultants who will bring their national , international experience and innovative solutions to deliver added value to our customers and the general public. The framework will be a multi-supplier multi-disciplinary framework and will cover all services required to design and deliver highways and infrastructure projects for the Council. The framework contracts being procured will be awarded with up to a maximum of 4 service providers. All Consultants appointed to the Framework Agreement will be required to have the required skill sets and range of staff available in sufficient numbers and expertise to cover the full range of skills needed to efficiently carry out all the different types of civil engineering and transport related work. Other local Public Bodies based within the East Midlands and West Midlands are entitled to use the Framework Agreement, subject to approval by the Council. This is affected by the completion of an access agreement between the Council and these other local Public Bodies. The open framework scheme will remain in place for a maximum period of up to eight years, commencing on the date that the Contract is awarded pursuant to this procurement process. Further details in respect of how the open framework scheme will operate are set out within the Framework Opening Protocol, contained in the tender documents. The Council does not intend to procure specialist sub-lots on this framework. It is intended to access specialist services via the 4 Suppliers and their supply chains. Under PA23 it states that Subcontracting to SMEs: A condition of participation could require a large supplier to subcontract a certain percentage of the contract to SMEs. This can be a way to promote SME involvement in public sector contracts. The Council intend to incorporate a minimum requirement of 20% of all services to be subcontracted to SMEs as a condition of participation via awarded suppliers. NEC4 terms and conditions will be used for this framework. Suppliers will need to ensure they are on the Central Digital Platform. Of the £400m framework spend (excl VAT), £240m of this is for Birmingham City Council.
