Maryland Multiple Sites

Newham Council is seeking a delivery partner, such as an architect or a design-led contractor, to develop a small sites design toolkit and create two to three community spaces on underutilised sites in the north of the borough. Key project locations include Waddington Street and the Hamfrith Estate, with the latter requiring specific soil contamination remediation to ensure safety for community garden use. The project involves a comprehensive scope of work including community engagement, co-design, physical interventions, and the creation of a public-facing design guide. The contract will be executed under a JCT Minor Works with Contractor Design agreement for an initial term of 12 months, with a possible six-month extension, starting January 11, 2027. The total project budget is estimated between 400,000 and 440,000 Pounds Sterling. Award decisions are based on 100% quality, provided the bidder achieves a minimum qualitative score of 60% and stays within the budget. Bidders must submit their proposals via the Delta eSourcing portal by November 1, 2026. Required submissions include a case study, a programme of works, and detailed proposals for the toolkit and specific site deliverables, including mood boards and engagement plans. The procurement process emphasizes sustainability in packaging and materials, and requires strict adherence to specific document formats and confidentiality marking.
