Summary of the contracting process

Tower Hamlets commissioned construction consultancy services for the London Dock Jade Wharf development in London. The appointed contractor provides Employers Agent and Clerk of Works services, supporting the management, administration and site oversight of the construction requirement. In plain terms, the work combines client-side project administration with inspection and monitoring of construction activity. The procurement is categorised as services and is classified under CPV 71530000, construction consultancy services. The buyer is Tower Hamlets, based at New Town Hall, Whitechapel Road, London. Delivery is associated with London Dock Jade Wharf in London, within the United Kingdom. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This procurement has reached the awarded stage and is marked complete. Tower Hamlets used a direct award procedure. The tender submission deadline was 24 March 2026 at 23:59 UTC, and the contract was awarded to calfordseaden LLP on 24 March 2026. The award value is £177,000. The contract period runs from 30 March 2026 to 31 January 2029. The selected supplier is an SME. The procurement concerns a single requirement rather than separately described lots. The award is recorded as active, with calfordseaden LLP named as the supplier. The published process identifies Tower Hamlets as the buyer and the direct-award route as the method used to appoint the construction consultancy provider.

This requirement demonstrates demand from Tower Hamlets for a combined Employers Agent and Clerk of Works service on a major London Dock development. A credible future competitor would need to provide construction consultancy expertise spanning client-side contract and project administration, together with independent site inspection, quality monitoring and works oversight. The appointed supplier’s SME status indicates that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist practice rather than only a large multidisciplinary consultancy. Relevant firms should be able to show experience supporting construction projects in London, provide suitably capable staff for both service elements, and coordinate effectively with the council, contractors and wider project team. The direct-award route also shows the buyer’s use of a focused appointment method for this requirement.
