How to win: TVCA - Transport Programme

About this contract

Tees Valley Combined Authority (TVCA) is undertaking Preliminary Market Engagement to help inform the future commercial and procurement approach for the delivery of its transport investment programme. The programme represents a significant investment in transport across Tees Valley, intended to improve connectivity, support economic growth and employment, and provide a more integrated and sustainable transport network. The programme encompasses investment across a broad range of transport infrastructure and services, including rail, highways, bus and public transport infrastructure, active travel, and transport technology and innovation. Delivery of the programme is expected to generate a diverse range of requirements and opportunities across the transport and infrastructure supply chain. At this stage, TVCA has not finalised how individual requirements will be packaged or procured. It is anticipated that the programme will involve multiple procurement exercises and contracting opportunities, which will be developed and advertised separately as the programme progresses. TVCA is also exploring the development of a programme-wide supplier ecosystem to support effective collaboration
