Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "BT179 - Ebury Bridge TLA Service" was conducted by Westminster City Council, a sub-central government authority in the United Kingdom. The initiative aims to provide independent and impartial advice through a Residents' Independent Tenant Leasehold Advisor (ITLA) for phase 2 of the regeneration of the Ebury Bridge Estate in London. The procurement was concluded under an open competition method, categorised in the services industry, specifically focusing on housing and accommodation services. The tender process reached the award stage, and the contract has been signed as of 9th May 2025, with services set to commence on 1st June 2025 and proposed to continue until 31st May 2027. Innovatively, the contract allows for two potential annual renewals depending on the need and supplier performance, offering a potential extension until 31st May 2029.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in providing advisory services, especially those focusing on housing and community engagement within urban regeneration projects. SMEs and VCSEs like the Communities First Foundation, which secured the contract, would find such opportunities ideal for growing their business in the public sector. Involvement in this project allows service providers to align with Westminster City Council's vision of sustainable development and community improvement, enhancing their portfolio with a high-profile public authority contract. This contract is indicative of the increasing trend for public entities to involve specialist advice services in large-scale, long-term community projects, thereby opening up avenues for smaller, specialised firms to compete robustly in the sector.
