The Greater London Authority (GLA) is seeking a fabricator to produce a new bronze artwork called, "The Wake" created by artist Khaleb Brooks, a new memorial to honour enslaved Africans who were trafficked as part of the transatlantic slave trade, and their descendants, due to be unveiled in 2026/27. The fabricator will work in consultation with with the artist and the commissioner, the Greater London Authority. Before fabrication of the statue can commence, planning permission will need to be secured for the installation. The planning application will be drawn up and submitted by an architect with the fabricator supporting this process. The fabricator will therefore be awarded the first stage (Phase 1 - Planning Support) initially and then if (as is expected) the application is successful the second stage - i.e (Phase 2 - Fabrication and Phase 3 - Installation) - will then be instructed through the same contract. It should be noted while this contract award notice records two bidders as assessed and evaluated, the outcome should be understood in the context of the associated transparency notice, which provides the relevant details regarding the direct award of this contract. Transparency Notice identifier: 2025/S 000-054061 The earliest date for signing the contract is as stated in this notice (17 September 2025).
