UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hounslow is seeking a provider to design three playgrounds and provide contract administration. The design work covers RIBA stages 1–4 for Beaversfield Park, Bear Road and Crane Park, including a full proposal and RIBA 4 report to support the release of construction funding. Contract administration is required through RIBA stage 6. Beaversfield Park is a medium-sized park in central Hounslow; Bear Road is a small park in Feltham where the existing playground needs significant renewal; Crane Park is a large riverside park in Feltham. This is a landscape architecture and urban planning services requirement, with the work at the three parks in the London Borough of Hounslow.

The process reached tender: the council invited offers through an open competition. The enquiry deadline was 17 November 2026 at 13:00, and the bid deadline was 26 November 2026 at 13:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 February 2027 to 31 July 2028, with an option to extend once by six months, to 28 February 2029. The estimated value is £52,748 excluding VAT (£63,297.60 including VAT). The procurement is one lot. Bids are assessed on quality, weighted at 60%, and cost, weighted at 40%.

This opportunity suits a landscape architecture or playground-design practice able to take projects through the full RIBA 1–4 design process and prepare a developed proposal and stage 4 report that can support construction funding decisions. The supplier must also be equipped to provide contract administration through RIBA stage 6, so experience needs to cover delivery beyond design and into construction. The work spans three parks of different sizes and settings, including a riverside park and an existing playground requiring significant renewal. Small and medium-sized enterprises are identified as suitable to compete. The requirement is a single package across all three sites, favouring a provider with the capacity to manage coordinated design and administration across multiple locations.
