UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London recently completed a public procurement process for landscape design services to facilitate the transition of Smithfield and Billingsgate Market. The contract was awarded to LDA Design Consulting Ltd, effective from 7th January 2026, with completion scheduled by 30th June 2026. This project falls under the industry category of construction consultancy services, located within the UKI region, United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through a direct method without competition, below the threshold stipulated by UK legislation 2023/54.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for firms specialising in construction consultancy services to engage with major public authorities. Large-scale businesses with expertise in landscape design services could find similar projects fruitful for growth, establishing connections with sub-central government entities such as the City of London. Direct procurement methods, as employed in this case, suggest potential future collaborations without the rigmarole of competitive tendering, appealing to firms capable of delivering specialised services within legislative parameters. Such contracts could pave the way to securing roles in transformative urban projects, enriching the service portfolio and enhancing reputation within the construction consultancy sector.
