Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council has completed the award stage of a procurement process for the PCSA Horden Affordable Housing project, which involves the development of approximately 50 housing units across Phases 1, 1A, and 3. This project falls under the industry category of architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, with additional relevance to research and development consultancy services. Located in the North East of England, the scheme employs a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract is valued at £400,000, with a contractual period from 30th July 2025 to 30th July 2026. The award to T Manners was finalised on 25th May 2025, as part of the Council House Delivery Programme under the PCRs 2015 framework.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses within the construction and engineering sectors, particularly for those specialising in affordable housing solutions. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) stand to benefit from engaging in such projects due to the emphasis on selective procurement and suitability specifications that favour SMEs. Businesses adept in framework agreements and those offering comprehensive architectural and consultancy services would find this an appropriate contract to pursue. Participation in such government housing initiatives can foster business growth through strategic partnerships and enhanced visibility within public sector procurement landscapes.
