UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hillingdon is procuring servicing, maintenance and seasonal recommissioning of irrigation systems, ponds, a lake, water features and drinking fountains across the borough. The work covers irrigation at 10 bowls clubs, 27 drinking fountains, two children’s splash pads, the Polish War Memorial water feature and fountains, four ponds and one lake with aerators. Services include recommissioning for spring and summer, decommissioning for winter, and maintenance, repairs and replacement parts during the season. This is a maintenance and repair services contract for public water and irrigation assets in Hillingdon, west London.

The process reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single lot, with quality weighted at 50% and price at 50%; an electronic auction is also part of the process. The submission deadline set was 23 October 2026 at 17:00, and the stated award decision date was 7 December 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2029, with an option to extend by 12 months, to 31 January 2030. The estimated value is £180,000 including VAT.

The opportunity suits suppliers able to maintain and repair irrigation systems and a varied portfolio of water assets, including fountains, splash pads, ponds and a lake with aerators. Delivery requires seasonal recommissioning and winter decommissioning, alongside in-season repairs and replacement-part support. The council marks the lot as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so smaller specialist maintenance firms may be well placed to compete. Quality and price carry equal weight in evaluation, making both sound technical delivery and a competitive commercial offer relevant.
