Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by Homes England involves two substantial projects: the disposal and redevelopment of the Former South Staffs College Campus in Tamworth, and the establishment of a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to facilitate residential developments across England. Homes England, located in Newcastle upon Tyne, aims to develop 123 residential units and an 80-bed care home at the Tamworth site, with construction works classified under CPV code 45211000. The procurement stage for this site is complete, with Countryside Properties (UK) Ltd being awarded the contract on 5th February 2026. The project, valued at £40,455,000, will commence on 27th March 2026 and conclude on 22nd December 2028. Simultaneously, the DPS tender, projected to run until August 2031, is active and involves a restricted procedure for selecting housebuilders and contractors. This DPS, valued at £20 billion, aims to replace existing delivery panels and facilitate developments of various scales across England.

These procurement opportunities present significant prospects for business expansion particularly for construction companies and residential developers. The Tamworth project opens doors for businesses skilled in multi-dwelling building construction, and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Countryside Properties (UK) Ltd, a large-scale supplier, has already been chosen for this award, highlighting the potential for larger developers to participate. The DPS invites housebuilders and residential developers to join a dynamic network capable of benefiting from repeat opportunities across England. The emphasis on development sites that include conversion, refurbishment, and works to listed buildings, as well as sites offering specialised living arrangements and affordable housing, signals diverse business potentials across multiple sectors. Businesses can continuously tailor their involvement in subcategories and express interest in new additions as Homes England expands the DPS over the decade.
