Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Southwark is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for major decarbonisation works at the Camberwell Leisure Centre, located in London (postcode SE5 8TS). This initiative is part of a broader effort to reduce carbon emissions and enhance energy efficiency, aligning with the borough's climate commitments. The project is funded through the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme and is set to engage a Principal Contractor who can execute RIBA Stage 4 designs by a multi-disciplinary team. The procurement method is a single-stage process using the Alcumus SafeContractor List and is classified under several industry categories, including solar energy and construction work. Key timelines indicate that the contract period is planned to begin on 27th October 2026 and conclude by 31st March 2027.

This tender presents a significant business opportunity for construction firms, particularly those specialising in eco-friendly technologies such as solar energy and heat pumps. The limited competition process, appropriate for businesses with niche expertise, especially those listed on the Alcumus SafeContractor List, offers small and medium enterprises (SMEs) a viable chance to participate. By capitalising on this opportunity, businesses can not only expand their portfolio in sustainable development but also contribute to a substantial public sector project aimed at reducing environmental impact.
