Summary of the contracting process

The Bank of England has awarded a contract for "Drainage Works" to repair and clear the foul drainage system at their Debden site. The procurement falls under the works category, specifically focused on drainage, identified by CPV code 45232452. The process was undertaken through the direct procurement method, indicating a below-threshold contract without competition. This project was initiated under the legal framework of the UKPGA 2023/54 and has moved into the award stage, with the contract being signed on 29th October 2025 and is set to conclude by 1st December 2025. The buying organisation is based in London, and the contract activities will take place in the UKH3 region.

This contract signifies a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in drainage systems to showcase their capabilities to a high-profile buyer such as the Bank of England. Although this procurement was completed via direct award, similar opportunities could arise in this sector, particularly for SMEs like E & B Group Limited, which secured this contract. Companies involved in civil engineering, infrastructure maintenance, and specialised construction work stand to benefit from engaging with public sector contracts, allowing them to expand their service portfolio and establish a reputation in public works.
