Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Bromley has engaged in a procurement process for multidisciplinary consultancy services related to the Wharton Road Children's Housing Development. This procurement falls within the services category, specifically targeting architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services. The procurement method used was a direct award, due to a below-threshold closed tendering process where bids exceeded expectations under the Procurement Act 2023. The process is now at the contract award stage, featuring a scheduled contract period from 11th November 2025 to 30th January 2027. The services will take place in the UK, particularly in the Bromley region (UKI61), with documents detailing the award published on 29th October 2025. Key dates include the standstill period ending on 7th November 2025 and the contract signature scheduled for 11th November 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in multidisciplinary consultancy services. The tasks outlined in the contract, including coordination with project management and technical advisory services, require firms with comprehensive expertise in stages RIBA 2-4a and RIBA 4b-6. Conrad Koslowsky Architects, an SME already engaged as the supplier in this contract, exemplifies the type of business well-suited for such opportunities, suggesting that other similar enterprises with robust architectural and engineering capabilities could also find growth potential in engaging with public-sector projects, particularly those managed by sub-central government bodies like the London Borough of Bromley.
