Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Homes England, in collaboration with Liverpool City Council and the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, has completed the award stage of a procurement process concerning the "North Docks - Strategic Masterplan Vision" in Liverpool, England. The aim is to develop a Strategic Masterplan Vision for the regeneration of the North Docks area. The contract, valued at £150,147, was directly awarded to Mace Consult Limited, a large-scale supplier, on 16th December 2025, with the award officially published on 8th January 2026. The project falls under the industry category of architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, with its contract period running from 18th December 2025 to 20th March 2026.

This tender represents a valuable business growth opportunity, particularly for consultancy firms experienced in urban regeneration and master planning. The project is suited for organisations that can contribute to sustainable economic growth, housing delivery, infrastructure investment, and quality placemaking. Although the procurement method was a direct award, similar future initiatives could present opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to engage with public sector projects within the United Kingdom. As the North Docks Vision aims to create a long-term framework for development in a key part of Liverpool, businesses involved in architecture, engineering, or urban development would find participating in such projects beneficial for showcasing their expertise and expanding their portfolio in significant public sector contracts.
