Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hillingdon has concluded a public procurement process to award a contract for consultancy services related to Grays Road in the building consultancy services industry. This procurement, valued at £180,000, was carried out using a direct procurement method, specifically through a single tender action as it fell below the threshold. The contracting phase has been completed and the award was made to Altair Consultancy and Advisory Services Ltd on 27th June 2024, with the contract set to run from 3rd December 2024 to 31st March 2028. The project is located in London, United Kingdom, and targeted primarily at small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for consultancies specialising in building services, providing a four-year engagement with a substantial financial scope. Although this particular contract has already been awarded, similar opportunities could benefit small and medium-sized enterprises by allowing them to showcase their expertise in public sector projects, gain a foothold in the industry, and build a strong portfolio with prestigious clients such as local government bodies. Businesses experienced in delivering consultancy services for infrastructure projects, particularly those based in or with the capability to operate within the London area, would have been well-positioned to compete in this tender process.
