Mott MacDonald Wins Key Roles on Transport for London's Consultancy Framework

Mott MacDonald has secured multiple appointments under Transport for London's latest Professional Services Framework (PSF3), strengthening its position as a strategic delivery partner for major transport programmes across the capital.

The consultancy has been selected to provide Project, Programme and Commercial Management (PPCM) services as part of the four-year framework, which supports the planning, management and delivery of transport projects throughout London's network.

The framework plays a central role in helping TfL deliver infrastructure improvements, operational enhancements and long-term investment programmes aimed at improving the safety, reliability and sustainability of transport services across the city.

Appointed Across Four Service Areas

Under the new agreement, Mott MacDonald has been awarded positions across four specialist disciplines:

• Project and programme leadership

• Programme management office and controls

• Risk and opportunity management

• Planning and scheduling services

The company said its selection reflects TfL's confidence in its ability to deliver complex programmes through a combination of technical expertise, collaborative working practices and experience gained from previous major transport projects.

Supporting Future Transport Investment

Kerry Hancock, Managing Director for Advisory and Programme Delivery at Mott MacDonald, said the framework appointment creates opportunities to support TfL's future ambitions and strategic objectives.

She explained that the company's advisory and programme delivery teams will focus on identifying and developing initiatives that contribute to the transport authority's long-term goals while helping to deliver projects efficiently and effectively.

Hancock also noted that the appointment builds on an established working relationship between the two organisations and places Mott MacDonald in a strong position to provide support as TfL moves forward with its investment plans under a more stable funding environment.

Wider Benefits Across London

The Professional Services Framework is not only used by Transport for London but can also be accessed by London's borough councils and other public sector organisations. The arrangement is designed to streamline procurement processes, allowing public bodies to secure consultancy expertise more efficiently and cost-effectively.

The framework replaces TfL's previous Engineering and Project Management Framework and is intended to provide greater flexibility in accessing specialist support across a wide range of transport and infrastructure programmes.

Preparing for Future Opportunities

As part of its mobilisation activities, Mott MacDonald plans to engage closely with TfL teams and stakeholders across the organisation. The company said it will focus on understanding emerging priorities, strengthening relationships and ensuring resources are aligned to respond quickly when new commissions are released.

The appointment further enhances Mott MacDonald's involvement in London's transport sector and positions the consultancy to play a significant role in supporting future infrastructure investment and programme delivery across the capital over the next four years.
