The contract is mainly for the supply of works with some ancillary real estate services. The Council is inviting developers to arrange a 1:1 virtual preliminary market engagement discussion with the Council commencing the 14th April 2025 to hear the Council’s proposals with respect to the procurement, share responses to the Council’s procurement strategy and engage with potential suppliers on optimum residential content and tenure mix; successful affordable housing provision including total no. of units, location and integration; working with a designated housing association to deliver affordable housing; and place making and community building. The Council is seeking to hold discussions with developers who have acquired and constructed over 200 units on a single site within the last five years, either individually or as part of a consortium.
