Summary of the contracting process

Dartford Borough Council, located at Civic Centre, Home Gardens in Dartford, United Kingdom, recently undertook the "Len Goodman Artwork Works" procurement process, aimed at commissioning a public piece of art to be inlaid into existing paving in the Town Centre. Initiated as a direct procurement method without competition, it falls within a works category, and the award is in a pending status following the contract's initiation on 21 April 2026. The tender holding ID DBC00040 and under legal basis 2023/54, was awarded to Henderson & Taylor Public Works Limited, a supplier based in London. The contract period is set from 18 May 2026 to 20 June 2026, with potential renewal considerations due to unforeseen circumstances. The laying of paving is set to commence in the UKJ4 region, highlighting an opportunity for decorative paving industry players.

This tender represents a lucrative opportunity for businesses involved in public art, decorative, and infrastructure works, providing an avenue for small and medium enterprises. As the procurement method was direct, businesses that can offer unique and high-quality solutions within specified budget limits and possess capabilities in community-centric arts projects will be well-positioned to engage effectively. The project not only commemorates a public figure but also enhances the aesthetic value of the town, offering growth potential for involved suppliers in public works and community engagement projects.
