Highways England is looking for consultants to join its Cost Planning Servive Provider Framework 2021, which provides cost estimating for road projects.

The Cost Planning function is responsible for delivering cost planning services which ensures that the business has detailed cost information to make properly informed business decisions and that governance is maintained.

The cost plans prepared by the CP team are used to approve funding at various stages of the project lifecycle. All major programme budgets and funding approvals are informed by cost plans produced by the Cost Planning function.

This latest procurement seeks to bolster the in-house Cost Planning resources. The framework seeks to appoint 3 service providers to deliver cost plans for projects for RIS2 over a 30 month period.
