Summary of the contracting process

West London Waste Authority sought a contractor to design, supply, modify, deliver and install temporary building structures for the ReActon Circular Economy Hub in Acton, West London. The hub is being developed at a disused Household Reuse and Recycling Centre as a facility for residents to access reused items, repair goods and learn skills that extend product life. The works cover modular or container-based buildings, refurbishment and modification, positioning and installation with minimal disruption to site operations, and phased delivery through collaborative design. The contractor would also coordinate with the authority and stakeholders, support planning and statutory requirements with drawings and technical information, and apply circular construction principles including reused or recycled materials, design for disassembly and waste minimisation. This is a construction works opportunity involving prefabricated buildings and building installation.

The procurement reached tender: the authority invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It was subsequently cancelled because no bids were received. The single lot was assessed using Most Advantageous Tender, with quality weighted at 60% and price at 40%. The tender deadline was 31 July 2026 at 16:00, and the deadline for enquiries was 15 July 2026 at 14:00. The planned contract period was 7 September to 27 November 2026. The estimated value was £400,000 excluding VAT, or £480,000 including VAT. Submissions were required electronically by email and had to include the pricing schedule, contractor vetting information, low-carbon procurement charter, declarations, covering letter and mandatory pass/fail supplier response.

This opportunity suited small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, with participation reserved for suppliers based in the United Kingdom. It was aimed at contractors able to deliver temporary modular, container-based or prefabricated structures, including refurbishment, structural modification, transport, positioning and installation on a working waste site. Relevant suppliers would need practical design and delivery capability, including phased implementation and collaborative design with a public authority and other stakeholders. Experience supporting planning and statutory requirements, preparing technical drawings and information, and managing installation with minimal operational disruption would be useful. The requirement also favoured businesses able to demonstrate cost-effective, robust temporary solutions and apply circular economy methods such as reuse, recycled materials, design for disassembly and waste minimisation, alongside suitable health, safety and compliance arrangements.
