You asked
Dear Sirs,
We understand from your published spend reports that you purchase transport consultancy and transport modelling related services from certain organisations. We would like to request in the public interest confirmation of whether the council has specific contracts with these organisations, and therefore the extent to which these services have had to be outsourced using public money. As such, please could you confirm the following:
1. The number of transport consultancy contracts that you have with supplier organisations and who they are with.
2. The nature of each contract, whether it is a single supplier, multiple supplier, framework or DPS, or if a contract does not exist, the purchasing process for such an ad hoc arrangement
3. The scope of each contract, e.g. general transport consultancy services, consultancy for specific project, general transport modelling consultancy, transport modelling consultancy for specific project
4. The length of each contract and date that each one will expire
5. The amount of spend with each contracting organisation over the last 12 months 1st Jan 2017 to 31st Dec 2018.
We understand there is a standard window of 20 days for providing this information and look forward to your response.
Many thanks
