Summary of the contracting process

Wilton Park commissioned architectural professional services for the restoration of windows at its site. The requirement covers professional architectural work associated with assessing, designing or overseeing window restoration, within the broader field of architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services. Wilton Park is a central government public authority based at Wiston House, Steyning, West Sussex, and is the organisation buying and using the service. The work concerns the Wilton Park site rather than a general regional service. The procurement was treated as a single requirement and awarded to an Oxford-based small and medium-sized enterprise, indicating a focused professional appointment connected to the restoration of a specific site asset.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded. Wilton Park used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the light-touch regime. The contract was signed on 1 July 2026, with delivery running from 1 July 2026 to 5 February 2027. The awarded supplier is PENWARDEN HALE LTD. The contract value is £50,000 excluding VAT and £60,000 including VAT. The award covers the single window-restoration requirement. The published outcome records the tender and lot as complete, while the award and contract are active. No competitive evaluation criteria are recorded for this direct award, so the available outcome identifies the selected supplier, the service required and the agreed contract value rather than a scored comparison between bids.

This procurement is relevant to architectural practices and built-environment consultancies able to provide professional services for the restoration of windows on a public-sector site. Useful capability would include architectural assessment, restoration design, technical coordination and inspection or oversight of construction work, with an understanding of how specialist window-restoration requirements are delivered in practice. The requirement shows demand for a defined professional appointment rather than a large construction package, and that an SME supplier can be selected for this type of work. Businesses tracking Wilton Park should therefore be able to demonstrate credible experience in heritage or existing-building window restoration, communicate effectively with a public authority and manage a focused assignment from professional advice through to delivery support.
