Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Hopkinson House - Architect" project has been completed by Westminster City Council, located in London, England. This procurement focuses on architectural services, falling under the CPV category for architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services. The project involves the refurbishment of Hopkinson House as part of the council's initiative to expand its temporary accommodation offerings. The primary goal is to maximise the number of family-sized units in the renovated building. The procurement was conducted using a selective method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract for this project, valued at £317,960, was awarded on 14th February 2025, with the contract period starting on 4th June 2025 and expected to end by 6th March 2028. The tender period concluded on 28th October 2024.

This tender presents an opportunity for architectural firms, particularly those classified as SMEs, to engage in significant urban refurbishment projects, thereby expanding their portfolio and gaining experience in public sector contracts. The project aligns well with businesses experienced in providing innovative architectural solutions that meet the needs of mixed-use refurbishment projects favoring family-sized accommodations. Additionally, enterprises engaged in sustainable urban development could greatly benefit from this opportunity to demonstrate their capability in executing large-scale housing strategies that address the demand for temporary accommodation in urban settings. Westminster City Council's emphasis on family-friendly housing underscores a potential for specialists in residential design to further their reach within the public procurement landscape.
