Can I win this?

Competition

Usually high: a median of 7 bids per contract for this buyer (from 15 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £5,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Establishment of a multi-supplier framework agreement for the provision of comprehensive transport and infrastructure planning, policy, modelling, engineering and technical advice. The Framework will support the planning, appraisal and delivery of transport and infrastructure projects and related policies across Leicestershire and the surrounding areas. It enables service users to draw on expert advice in a flexible and timely manner, ensuring informed decision making and effective project development. The Framework is likely to have 2 Lots: 1. Rail Policy, Strategy and Modelling 2. Comprehensive Advisory and Support Panel.
