Transport Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Ministers have identified the need for a framework (the current framework was let in 2019) that will support the Scottish Ministers to fulfil their duties under the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure)(Scotland) Regulations 2013, and their duties in relation to Development Planning and Management under Planning Circulars 6/2013: Development Planning and 3/2013: Development Management Procedures.
The Development Management Team provides advice to developers and planning authorities on planning applications and development plan related issues where development may impact on the performance and safety of the Trunk Road network.
The main objective to be delivered by the Framework Contractors is audit and advisory support to Transport Scotland on all aspects of the development management processes and to offer more specific support to address road safety objectives as set out in the Scottish Government's Road Safety to 2030 Framework and the Strategic Road Safety Plan. This framework will promote a safe systems approach, by integrating development management and road safety services, and by providing specific advice and support for road safety policy and delivery. The framework is to be expanded from its current scope to support active travel delivery on the Trunk Road Network, and to further support the Scottish Government's Sustainable Transport and Net Zero policy, as well as taking cognizance of the emerging National Planning Framework 4.
The proposed framework will be in place for a period of 3 years with the possibility of a 1 year extension period.
The Scottish Government's Model Service Framework Agreement will be used to award the Framework, and Call Off Contracts will use the Scottish Government's Conditions of Contract.
The Framework's Contractors will be procured in accordance with the Restricted procedure as stated in the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
Transport Scotland will manage the proposed procurement process on behalf of the Scottish Ministers. In the event of the Framework award, the Contract will be entered into between the Scottish Ministers and the successful Contractors.
