Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westminster City Council appointed a planning consultant to support the Compliance Monitoring Team for the 291 Harrow Road development. The service covers monitoring from RIBA Stage 4 through construction, with an ongoing quality assurance role for the Employer. It is a professional planning and built-environment consultancy service, classified under CPV 71240000 for architectural, engineering and planning services. Delivery is in London. The requirement is suited to an SME and is relevant to planning consultancies and multidisciplinary practices with experience advising on development compliance, construction-stage monitoring and quality assurance. It concerns a specific development rather than general planning support, so suppliers would need to be comfortable working as part of a compliance monitoring team and providing continuing oversight throughout the construction phase.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a limited procedure using a competitive quotation below the relevant threshold. The tender submission deadline was 13 February 2026 at 12:00 UTC. Westminster City Council awarded the contract to Turley Associates on 28 April 2026 for £111,000. The contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 30 June 2031. The stated basis was competitive quotation; the procurement information also identifies the service as a professional service and confirms that SMEs were considered suitable. The award is active and relates to the full planning-monitoring requirement for 291 Harrow Road. The contract period covers monitoring and quality assurance from RIBA Stage 4 through the construction period, rather than a one-off planning report or short advisory assignment.

For a supplier assessing future work from Westminster City Council, this award indicates demand for planning consultancy embedded in a development compliance monitoring team. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate planning expertise relevant to a major development, familiarity with RIBA Stage 4 design and technical information, and the ability to monitor compliance as construction progresses. It would also need to provide structured quality assurance for the Employer, identify issues consistently and work effectively with the project team and other professional advisers. The requirement is suitable for an SME, so a smaller specialist consultancy with strong planning and construction-monitoring capability could be relevant, provided it can sustain an ongoing service and evidence experience of comparable development-stage oversight.
