UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Bromley commissioned works for the Beckenham Housing Scheme. The requirement was to oversee the build-over and sewer diversion application and installation requirements associated with the housing development. This is construction and utility infrastructure work, including managing the relevant sewer diversion process and installation activities. The work relates to the Beckenham area and is for Bromley Council, a local authority. The named delivery organisation was Thames Water Utilities Ltd, reflecting the requirement’s connection with water and sewer infrastructure. Businesses relevant to this requirement would include water and wastewater utilities, civil engineering contractors, infrastructure specialists and firms experienced in coordinating build-over approvals, sewer diversions and associated construction works for housing schemes.

The procurement reached the awarded stage, but the award was subsequently cancelled on 18 August 2026. Bromley used a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. The cancelled award was to Thames Water Utilities Ltd for £4,500,000 excluding VAT, or £5,400,000 including VAT. The stated contract period was 24 March 2026 to 27 August 2028. The cancellation reason was that the contract value in the transparency notice contained a typographical error. The procurement had one lot, covering construction work under CPV 45000000. The award record identified Thames Water as the supplier, but the cancelled status means this award did not remain in force. The tender itself was recorded as complete.

This procurement indicates substantial demand from Bromley for specialist water and sewer infrastructure support connected with housing development. A credible future competitor for the same requirement would need practical experience of build-over applications, sewer diversion design and installation, and the technical delivery of works alongside a residential construction programme. Strong capability in dealing with water and wastewater assets, obtaining or managing utility approvals, coordinating site works and controlling complex infrastructure interfaces would be relevant. Suppliers would also need the operational capacity to manage a major, multi-year housing-related requirement and demonstrate reliable delivery of construction work in an urban setting. The procurement route shows that the buyer may use a direct, below-threshold approach for a specialist utility requirement.
