## Description
Transport for the South East (TfSE) is seeking a consultancy service, or consortium, that will 
work collaboratively with the team to provide a call off consultancy provision to cover a wide 
range of support to TfSE, to ensure delivery of our ambitious programme of work. The range of 
work that TfSE want to deliver is diverse and their technical team requires expert and technical 
support to deliver it. This contract will provide a call off consultancy provision to cover a wide 
range of support to Transport for the South East and its partners, to ensure delivery of the 
programme. 
The required consultancy service, provided by a single supplier or a consortium, will work 
collaboratively with the Transport for the South East team to provide a wide range of specialist 
advice and technical support to deliver the ambitious TfSE programme of work. DfT funding 
requires delivery of projects within agreed timescales. This Contract will ensure that TfSE can 
meet these deadlines. Up to this point, the service has been undertaking reactive procurement 
exercises in order to obtain the services of a multitude of consultants over a number of projects; 
the aim of this contract is to cease the need for re-active procurement exercises and to obtain a
