Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Haringey commissioned a client-side development project manager to lead the preparation, submission and determination of a hybrid planning application for the Wood Green Central sites. The work covers development project management for the planning application, including the construction-related and project-management services needed to advance it. Delivery is in London, at the Wood Green Central sites. The procurement is for professional services rather than construction works. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office appears in the process information, but Haringey is the buyer for this requirement.

The procurement is recorded as complete, but its outcome is mixed: an initial award was cancelled after no compliant bids were received and issues were identified during the process; two later active awards are listed. Longley Group Ltd received a contract worth £239,168.33, signed on 12 October 2026, and Arcadis Consulting (UK) Ltd received a contract worth £401,632, signed on 16 October 2026. The planned contract period was 19 January 2026 to 18 January 2027, with options to extend by up to two further years. The estimated maximum value was £347,500, including the extensions. The process used a restricted, single-stage competitive flexible procedure. Bids were assessed on price; the original submission deadline was 16 December 2025.

This requirement shows Haringey’s demand for client-side development project management to progress a major, complex planning application for a central London development site. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate the capacity and experience to lead an application through preparation, submission and determination, and to coordinate construction-related project-management work. The contract was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that smaller consultancies could compete if they can deliver the required scope and scale. The buyer awarded contracts to two suppliers after the initial award was cancelled, with five bids recorded for the lot in one statistic and 12 in another; this points to competition but the bid counts are inconsistent. Firms with relevant development and planning-project management capability should treat this buyer’s requirement as a useful indicator of the type of professional service it has procured.

Planning Information

The British Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is planning a procurement for Internet Infrastructure and Provision for British Embassy in Baghdad. Having reviewed all available routes to market, FCDO is considering to use the Competitive Flexible Procedure based on the Open Procedure under Procurement Act 2023 (UK Proc Act 2023). FCDO will host a virtual early market engagement (EME) event on Wednesday 29TH October 2025. In order to register for the EME event the organisation must login or register on FCDO’s ePortal: https://fcdo.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html and complete PQQ 1952: “Early Market Engagement (EME) for Internet Infrastructure and Provision for British Embassy in Baghdad”. In case of any issues with registering on the FCDO’s ePortal, please follow the help instructions listed on the ePortal home page or contact the platform provider. Any queries related to the opportunity or EME event should be submitted on the FCDO ePortal via messaging functionality linked to PPQ 1952. The purpose of this event is to promote this opportunity and provide a high-level overview of requirements and timescales to ensure delivery of the best Value for Money (VfM) solution. Previous engagement with the local market identified lack of familiarity with UK public procurement tenders as potential barriers to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and local providers. The presentation will provide a short update to the requirements, followed by an introduction to the new UK procurement legislation. Large section of the event will be dedicated to explaining the FCDO’s tender process and demystifying public procurement, specifically requirements of the Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ), a new tool introduced by the Proc Act 2023 to streamline supplier evaluation. There are no restrictions on the attendance of EME event, however, please note that in order for the bid to be considered, the IPS must meet a number of mandatory requirements. These include but are not limited to: • being licensed by the Ministry of Communications within the Government of Iraq (i.e. hold permissions to provide the service to customers within the International Zone); and • being able to physically visit the British Embassy site within 6 hours for any fault resolution they can’t manage remotely (that means they need Government of Iraq passes to access to the International Zone in Baghdad, where the British Embassy is sited). Please note that this EME event is not a call to competition and does not constitute the commencement of the procurement process. The use of PQQ functionality is for the purpose of organising the EME event and the dialogue with the supplier base following it. Attendance in the EME event is not mandatory; non-participation in the event will not prevent a bidder from submitting a tender. Please complete Qualification Envelope for PQQ_1952 by 7 am Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) on Wednesday 29th October 2025.
