Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the project titled "Design and installation of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) planters for schools" was initiated by the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. The project falls under the category of works related to drainage and involves a sub-central government public authority. This contract focused on enhancing biodiversity and mitigating surface water flooding in the school grounds of Old Oak Primary School, Wormholt Park Primary School, Holy Cross Primary School, and Flora Gardens Primary School in London. The procurement was conducted through a limited method due to its below-threshold status, leading to a limited competition. The contract entered the award stage on 2025-07-30, with the active contract duration from 31 July 2025 to 31 January 2027.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental and ecological infrastructure. Companies that provide sustainable design solutions, particularly those focusing on drainage systems and urban green spaces, will find themselves well-suited to such projects. This contract was awarded to Meristem Design Limited, an SME based in London, demonstrating the potential for smaller enterprises to compete effectively in public procurement processes. Successful participation could lead to further opportunities in similar governmental projects, facilitating business expansion and reputation-building within the sustainable urban development sector.
