## Summary

BIP Solutions Limited is buying development consultancy for a London project: design consultancy for the substructure supporting prefabricated steps at the SINC site. The requirement is a call-off from the Communities and Housing Investment Consortium’s Newbuild Framework, under its consultancy services lot. The work is professional design advice focused on the supporting substructure for the steps, rather than the supply of the steps themselves. Delivery is in London. The procurement is categorised as services, specifically development consultancy (CPV 73220000).

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Ridge and Partners LLP on 1 August 2026. The award value is £128,931. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 31 May 2027. It was a call-off under the CHIC Newbuild Framework, and the procurement method is recorded as not disclosed. The tender closed on 2 August 2026. The available details identify the requirement and award but do not set out the evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility conditions, so the award basis cannot be described further.

For firms considering similar future work for BIP Solutions Limited, this award demonstrates demand for specialist development consultancy tied to new-build delivery: structural design of substructures that support prefabricated steps. A credible competitor would need relevant design expertise in substructure engineering and the ability to coordinate its work with prefabricated building components and the wider site design. The route used was a call-off from CHIC’s Newbuild Framework, so framework participation and capability to deliver consultancy services within that arrangement are commercially relevant. The successful supplier, Ridge and Partners LLP, is recorded as a large organisation; this indicates the work was awarded to a supplier operating at that scale, although the published requirement does not state a minimum company size or specific credentials.
