UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Croydon commissioned architectural and related services for the Surrey Street Project 2.0, also called OURSPACE. The project aims to bring vacant units back into cultural use. The work is in Croydon, within the London Borough of Croydon. The procurement covered one lot and the awarded service was classified as architectural and related services. The published description identifies the project and its aim but does not provide a more detailed account of the individual design, advisory or delivery tasks. The buyer is Croydon Council.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to PUBLIC WORKS LIMITED. Croydon Council used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. The contract was signed on 23 October 2026 and runs from 23 October 2026 to 2 April 2027. Its value is £35,990 excluding VAT and £43,188 including VAT. There was one lot, and the supplier was appointed for that lot. The available process information does not state the evaluation criteria, so the award basis beyond the limited competition route cannot be described. The supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise.

This award shows Croydon Council buying architectural services to support the cultural reactivation of vacant premises on Surrey Street. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need architectural capability relevant to bringing empty commercial units into cultural use, and the ability to work on a local project in Croydon. The awarded supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that a business of this scale secured the work. The project title signals a cultural and place-based brief rather than general architectural work; suppliers whose experience combines architectural services with adapting vacant spaces for cultural activity are the closest fit. The contract was a single-lot, limited competition, so familiarity with participating in a restricted competitive process may also be useful.
