Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process for the regeneration of the North Quay Riverside area in Great Yarmouth has been completed with Great Yarmouth Borough Council as the contracting authority, supported administratively by East Suffolk Council. The procurement involved a competitive dialogue method to select a master developer for this mixed-use development project, which includes residential, commercial, leisure, and public-realm components. Willmott Dixon Construction Ltd has been awarded the contract valued at £1,498,847, with the contract period running from April 2025 to April 2027. This project falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category, targeting development services, site preparation work, and urban planning. The process was documented under the award stage, with all relevant details published on 19 March 2026.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in construction, architectural design, engineering, and landscape services. Companies with expertise in urban planning and mixed-use development projects are well-positioned to benefit from this regeneration initiative. While East Suffolk Council provided logistical support, the opportunity was primarily governed by Great Yarmouth Borough Council, focusing on developing real estate projects in the East of England. Businesses with experience in competitive dialogue procurement methods should particularly consider engaging with similar future projects, as this method was used for the North Quay Riverside development, highlighting the potential for collaborative and innovative solutions in complex urban environments.
