Summary of the contracting process

Southern Housing commissioned a design-and-build completion contract for building construction work at 25–33 Parkhouse Street, London, SE5 7TQ. The requirement covers completing the Parkhouse Street development rather than a standalone supply of goods or a routine service. The procurement is categorised as works and is associated with delivery locations in London, the East Midlands, the West Midlands, the South East and the South West. Businesses relevant to this requirement are main contractors and design-and-build firms able to take responsibility for completing building works at the specified London site. The named buyer is Southern Housing, based in London, and the selected supplier is Formation Design & Build Limited, an SME headquartered in Wembley.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Southern Housing used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 23 April 2026 at 13:00. Formation Design & Build Limited was awarded the contract on 2 September 2026 for £27,539,488.46. The contract runs from 1 June 2026 to 18 May 2028. The published requirement was for one design-and-build completion contract, with the tender estimated at the same value as the award. The data identifies the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the named supplier is responsible for the contracted works. The procurement’s stated classification is building construction work.

For a supplier that did not win this contract, the procurement demonstrates substantial demand from Southern Housing for end-to-end design-and-build capability on a major completion project. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need the capacity to manage a large construction package, coordinate design and delivery, and complete building works on an occupied or development-site programme as required by the contract documents. Experience as a principal contractor or comparable design-and-build provider would be relevant, together with the financial, technical and project-management capability to deliver a complex housing-related construction scheme. The award to an SME also indicates that firms of this scale can compete for the buyer’s sizeable works requirements, particularly through its dynamic purchasing system route.
