## About this tender

This notice confirms award of 5 of the 6 Lots available for the Regional Delivery Partnership Technical Adviser framework to 5 suppliers (this includes 1 joint venture, making 6 companies in total).

To support delivery of the UK Road Investment Strategy (RIS) 2 schemes ([gov.uk](https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/road-investment-strategy-post-2020)) through Highways England's preferred project delivery methodology Project Control Framework (PCF). TAs will recommend to Highways England the best route option and then protect its technical interests throughout development and delivery phases of a scheme. The TA will act as an enabler in its relationship with the DIP, assisting Highways England to create the environment for project success. The framework will be divided into 6 lots, with each lot having a specific value threshold for schemes and covering a defined geographical area:

- lots 1 to 3 (Band A) are for schemes with a client budget of less than or equal to £100m and cover South West and Midlands (Lot 1), South East and East (Lot 2) and North East and North West (Lot 3)
- lots 4 to 6 (Band B) are for schemes with a client budget of greater than £100m and cover South West and Midlands (Lot 4), South East and East (Lot 5) and North East and North West (Lot 6).
- Lot 2 South East & East will not be awarded due to all eligible suppliers being awarded another lot.

Highways England will not allow a TA for a scheme to also be the DIP (framework) Principal Designer for any given scheme. A Market Share rule will be applied to the value of work any one TA can undertake during the framework. This value is £78m which represents 30% of the overall framework value.
