Purpose:

In order to spend the DfT funding, granted to TfSE, within the timescales given and to ease pressure on the procurement team, it was agreed to obtain a technical call off contract to deliver our technical programme. Due to the level of spend this contract will incur, it needed to be agreed by the Director.

Decision:

The Director has approved the contract award for the Transport for the South East technical call off contract, which will allow for the delivery of the technical programme.

Alternative options considered:

Continuation with the current situation of procuring each piece of work individually was considered, which would increase pressure on the procurement team and the TfSE team.
