Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Caldew Riverside Development Project" has been completed, led by Cumberland Council, a sub-central public authority located in Carlisle, United Kingdom. HG Associates has been awarded the contract for architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, with a contract value of £55,000, potentially rising to £66,000 gross over the project period from 11th February 2026 to 20th March 2027. The tender was initiated with a limited procurement method, below the threshold for open competition. The project involves preparing an outline planning application with supporting surveys and managing the submission process for residential development on the designated site.

This tender presents significant avenues for business expansion, particularly for firms specialising in architectural, construction, and engineering services. It showcases opportunities in project management and planning application processes within the public sector. Businesses that can offer project coordination and consultative services might find this sector lucrative. SMEs interested in expanding their portfolio or entering the public authority market, particularly those with experience in UK-regional development, would likely be well-suited to compete in similar procurements in the future.
