Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Waltham Forest is overseeing the Chingford Mount Crematorium Development project, which involves the construction of a new crematorium on Old Church Road, London E4 6ST. This project falls under the construction industry, categorised by CPV as "Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus)" and "Construction work." The procurement follows an open procedure for works, with a total project value of GBP 9,000,000. The procurement stage is complete, with the award being published on 15th September 2025. The contract is set to begin on 22nd September 2025 and will conclude by 30th June 2027. The procurement process covers various regions across the United Kingdom, including London and several other regions, offering broad geographic opportunities for suppliers.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in construction works, particularly those experienced with public infrastructure and dedicated facilities like crematoriums. Since the procurement process has used an open procedure, it encourages competition, making it suitable for well-established companies with the capability to handle large-scale projects. Although not specifically aimed at SMEs or VCSEs, the nature of the work being predominantly construction-related suggests that companies specialised in high-value, complex projects with specific technical skills in the installation of cremators might find this a promising growth opportunity. Engaging in such a high-profile public project can help enhance a supplier's portfolio and elevate its standing in the industry.
