Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, a sub-central government public authority in the United Kingdom, is in the planning stage of a procurement process for the "Household Reuse and Recycling Centre and Waste Transfer Station Redevelopment Soft Market Testing". This project falls under the "works" industry category, particularly focused on architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services. Located in Kingston upon Thames, the redevelopment aims to refurbish and expand existing facilities. The preliminary market engagement documents are available on the London Tenders Portal, with a key due date set for 14th May 2025 to submit responses. The procurement process is outlined with an initial contract period starting on 1st September 2025 and projected to end by 29th August 2030, with the possibility of an extension up to 30th September 2031.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and engineering services, particularly those with experience in large-scale redevelopment projects. Companies capable of executing refurbishment with recladding and new construction, especially those familiar with design and build models, will find this opportunity appealing. The project invites construction contractors to partake in a two-stage procurement process, offering flexibility and potential collaboration in completing RIBA Stages 3 and 4, thus presenting robust opportunities for business growth and partnership with the government sector.

Notice Title

Household Reuse and Recycling Centre and Waste Transfer Station Redevelopment Soft Market Testing

Notice Description

The Royal Borough of Kingston Council is planning to undertake a tendering exercise for the redevelopment of the borough's Household Reuse and Recycling Centre and Waste Transfer Station. The project is currently at the end of RIBA Stage 2 and the Council wishes to understand from construction contractors their interest in tendering for such a scheme and whether they would wish to do so on a single, traditional basis or on a two stage, design and build basis. The scope of the project will be to refurbish the existing Waste Transfer Station (2898m2) (recladding, new roof, repairs to steel work etc) and redevelop the Household Reuse and Recycling Centre (4022m2) (mainly civils work including construction of ramps to create step free site). Depending upon feedback from the market, if the Council moves forward on a design and build the scope would also include the completion of RIBA Stages 3 and 4.
