Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Sutton is seeking construction and environmental works to reline Elms Pond in Wallington, in the London Borough of Sutton. The project is intended to replace the pond’s existing liner; the detailed work is set out in the specification. Vehicle access to the site is via the A237 London Road. The council recommends that bidders visit the site before preparing an offer so they can familiarise themselves with the location and surrounding area. This is a single works requirement, rather than a divided programme of separate lots. It will suit contractors able to undertake pond-lining work and associated site works in an urban setting.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The tender was published at the tender stage. Bidders could submit questions until 30 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC; offers were due by 5 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The planned contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an option to extend by one month, to 30 April 2027 at the latest. The estimated value is £110,000 excluding VAT (£132,000 including VAT). Award is based on quality, weighted at 80%, and price, weighted at 20%.

The opportunity is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, making it relevant to specialist pond-lining contractors as well as broader construction firms with the right environmental or water-management expertise. Suppliers will need the practical capability to prepare and reline a pond and manage work at the Wallington site; familiarity with site access and local conditions can be gained through the recommended visit. The specification sets out the full technical requirements, so contractors should assess their experience and delivery approach against it. The quality-led evaluation means a strong technical proposal and evidence of reliable delivery are likely to matter more than price alone. The relatively short project duration suits firms able to mobilise for a defined works package and complete it within the stated programme.
