Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, based in Egham, United Kingdom, culminated in the award for constructing a Peace Garden, with Hickman Brothers Landscapes Limited securing the contract. The procurement falls under the works category, specifically focusing on construction work for water projects, and is located within the UKJ2 region. This direct award, completed without competition as it falls below the threshold, was finalised on 25 March 2026, with the contract period spanning from 1 April 2026 to 27 May 2026.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in landscape construction and outdoor projects, particularly large companies capable of managing sizeable works within strict timelines. Although awarded directly, similar future opportunities could be available within Royal Holloway's remit, given its position as a sub-central government public authority. Companies with expertise in water-related infrastructure or garden constructions are well-positioned to leverage such projects for growth, potentially expanding their portfolio and client base within the realm of public sector contracts.
