Summary of the contracting process

The City of London Corporation procured safe access provision over the bascule chambers from resting blocks at Tower Bridge. The requirement covered fencing, railing and safety equipment installation, with associated consultative engineering and construction services (CPV 45340000-2 and 71310000). The work sits within the Tower Bridge business unit and is classified as a requirement for an otherwise unclassified City of London location. The buyer was the Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London. Delivery and installation activity is therefore centred on Tower Bridge in the City of London, rather than being a general city-wide or multi-site service. This is a specialist access and safety installation requirement for bridge infrastructure.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, and was arranged as one lot. EYE PRO LTD was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 7 June 2026, runs from 8 June 2026 to 30 September 2026, and has a gross value of £60,525.58. The award is recorded as active and the contract is active. The published procurement information identifies the requirement and the selected supplier but does not set out a separate scored evaluation basis. This outcome shows that the buyer used a below-threshold route without inviting competing bids for this Tower Bridge access and safety work.

For a supplier assessing future work for the City of London Corporation, this procurement indicates demand for practical safety access works on complex bridge infrastructure. Relevant capability includes installing fencing, railings and safety equipment around bascule chambers and resting blocks, alongside consultative engineering and construction support. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that it can work safely in a specialist Tower Bridge environment, understand access and protection requirements, and deliver installation work around operational infrastructure. Experience combining site-based safety installation with engineering advice would be particularly relevant. The selected supplier was a large business, suggesting capacity to manage a focused infrastructure requirement and coordinate the associated technical and construction activity for this buyer.
