Summary of the contracting process

Tower Hamlets procured structural and civil engineering consultancy services for the Augusta Street construction project in England. The appointed consultant is responsible for developing initial structural and civil engineering designs, together with engineering calculations and reports, across each RIBA design stage from Stage 2 Concept Design through to completion of Stage 5 Construction, including Practical Completion. This is a professional engineering services requirement covering the design and technical support needed to take a construction project from concept through construction completion. The buying organisation is Tower Hamlets. The main category is architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services, specifically structural and civil engineering consultancy.

The procurement is complete following a further competition under Lot 1, Built Environment, of the CCS RM6165 Construction Professional Services Framework. It used a selective restricted procedure. The tender deadline was 27 November 2025 at 12:00 GMT. Tower Hamlets awarded the contract to Pick Everard on 27 January 2026 for £199,260.50 including the stated contract value currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 15 July 2026 to 14 July 2031. The award is active. The requirement was treated as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement covered one structural and civil engineering consultancy appointment for the Augusta Street project, with delivery in England.

This award demonstrates a substantial, multi-stage requirement for a consultancy able to provide both structural and civil engineering expertise throughout a construction project. A credible future competitor would need to develop concept designs, carry out engineering calculations, and produce technical reports at successive RIBA stages, maintaining capability through construction and Practical Completion. The work suits engineering consultancies with experience of coordinating design information across the full project lifecycle rather than firms offering only a discrete design package. Relevant businesses should be able to operate through a public-sector professional services framework and demonstrate the technical capacity, quality controls and project experience needed to support a long construction programme. The buyer has identified this type of opportunity as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller specialist consultancies may be capable of competing when the requirement returns.
