## Summary

The City of London Corporation commissioned structural engineering consultancy services to review Blackfriars Bridge, Southwark Bridge and Tower Bridge. The work covers structural reviews of these three bridges, with delivery in the United Kingdom. The buyer is The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, the public authority responsible for the procurement. This is a specialist professional-services requirement rather than construction or routine maintenance. It is relevant to consultancies with experience assessing bridge structures, identifying structural risks and producing robust engineering advice for major urban transport infrastructure. The named requirement is classified under CPV 71312000, structural engineering consultancy services, and concerns one completed lot covering the three bridges.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Roughan and O'Donovan UK Limited was selected for the single lot. The award is active and the contract was signed on 24 June 2026. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 August 2026. Its value is £32,960 excluding VAT, or £39,552 including VAT. The tender was evaluated through a limited competition under the procurement method recorded for the process. The outcome shows that the City of London Corporation selected one supplier to provide the structural reviews across Blackfriars, Southwark and Tower Bridge. The procurement was below the applicable threshold.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist bridge-structure review services from the City of London Corporation, covering several prominent urban bridges within one commission. Competitors preparing for similar work should be able to assess existing bridge structures, identify defects and risks, and provide clear, defensible engineering recommendations. Credibility would come from relevant structural engineering consultancy experience, particularly on bridges or comparable transport infrastructure, together with the technical capacity to coordinate reviews across multiple assets and deliver a concise professional service within a short programme. The selected supplier was recorded as an SME, indicating that a suitably experienced specialist consultancy can compete for this scale of requirement without being a major corporate contractor. The route used was a below-threshold limited competition.
