Summary of the contracting process

Homes England commissioned professional architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services for the Northeye site at Bexhill in the Rother District. The requirement covers procuring a demolition contractor, supporting the allocation of the site in the Rother District Local Plan, and preparing a planning application. The main procurement category is services, with the classification covering architectural, construction, engineering and inspection work (CPV 71000000). The named buyer is Homes England, formally identified as Homes England (the name adopted by the Homes and Communities Agency). The project is associated with the South East of England, specifically land at Northeye, Bexhill. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. The tender submission deadline was 27 January 2026 at 23:59 UTC. Two active awards were made to WSP UK Limited on 28 January 2026. The first award was valued at £1,238,521 and covers the period from 29 January 2026 to 29 October 2027. The second award was valued at £1,500,000 and covers the same period. The tender’s upper estimated value was £1,238,521. The published information identifies the procurement as a tender for services, with the procurement method recorded as not applicable. The awards concern the same Northeye, Bexhill requirement and were reported separately rather than as a combined value.

For businesses assessing future work from Homes England, this award demonstrates demand for multidisciplinary property and development support connected with strategic land assembly and planning. Credible suppliers would need to combine construction and engineering capability with planning expertise, including the ability to support demolition procurement, local-plan allocation work and planning-application preparation. Experience of complex development sites, coordination across technical disciplines and engagement with a public-sector landowner would be relevant. The requirement was suitable for SMEs, so specialist firms or collaborative teams may be well placed where they can provide the necessary breadth, manage interfaces and demonstrate reliable delivery of planning and site-enabling advice. The buyer’s focus on Northeye provides a clear example of its development-related service needs.
