Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Redbridge procured specialist consultancy services for the full procurement life cycle of its leisure and sports facilities, including facilities in parks and open spaces and associated wellbeing activities. The work covers preparation of pre-procurement documentation, support during the evaluation process and post-award assistance to develop a contract performance management manual. This is a management consultancy requirement focused on leisure, sport, public facilities and wellbeing services for a London local authority. The procurement was intended to support Redbridge’s future contracting arrangements for these facilities and activities, rather than the direct operation or delivery of leisure services themselves.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to MAX ASSOCIATES (HOLDINGS) LIMITED. It used a selective procedure as a below-threshold award under a framework, and was not competitive at this stage. There was one completed lot. The contract was signed on 8 May 2026 and runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 March 2028. Its value is £62,650 excluding VAT, or £75,180 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The requirement was evaluated and awarded through the framework route to the named supplier; the published information does not provide a separate award date.

This award demonstrates demand from Redbridge for specialist procurement consultancy in the leisure and sports sector, with a focus on public facilities, parks and open spaces, and wellbeing activities. A credible future competitor would need to lead a complete leisure-services procurement, from shaping the pre-procurement approach and drafting documentation through to evaluation support and post-award contract-management arrangements. Relevant experience should include advising local authorities or comparable public bodies, understanding leisure and sports facility operating models, and producing practical performance-management documentation. Suppliers with the capacity to manage a multi-stage assignment through to contract mobilisation, and with strong public procurement, evaluation and contract-performance expertise, would be well placed for similar work from this buyer.
