Summary of the contracting process

The North Halifax Transformation Programme, led by the Borough Council of Calderdale, involves the development of approximately 300 new homes in the area. This project encompasses constructing homes for market sale, affordable rent, or shared ownership. It also addresses the enhancement of public open space, active travel routes, and biodiversity net gain, in line with planning conditions. The procurement process follows a competitive procedure with negotiation, differentiated by stages, including the submission of a Supplier Selection Questionnaire, Initial Tender, and if necessary, a Subsequent Tender. The contract, managed under legal regulations, with partners including Keepmoat Homes Ltd, is valued at approximately £2,254,251, with a contract duration of ten years, precisely outlined by individual site agreements.

This procurement presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specializing in construction, engineering, and related fields, particularly those capable of developing comprehensive infrastructural and residential solutions. Large-scale developers such as Keepmoat Homes Ltd, with expertise in sustainable residential projects, are ideal candidates for this undertaking, which aims to revitalize underutilised land in North Halifax. The selective procurement method ensures qualified businesses, who can navigate complex negotiations and adapt to unforeseen modifications, such as changes to extra care facilities, are best positioned to thrive in this evolving residential market.

Following the previous modification Notice 2023/S OOO-037760 published December 2023 which contained the rationale for the 'age inclusive 'aspect of the extra care to be removed further promotion of a more standard extra care scheme has taken place. This has included a second soft market testing exercise targeted at the sector and extensive negotiations with a number of established providers none of which have progressed due to viability concerns. It is therefore clear that an extra care facility in this location is not deliverable within the required timescales for this Programme. The extra care facility will be replaced with housing in line with need and demand in the area. This modification is in line with Regulation 72 (1) and therefore does not change the overall nature of the contract.",

Description of the circumstances which rendered the modification necessary and explanation of the unforeseen nature of these circumstances: Following contract award, the nominated partner of the key developer for Extra Care provision unexpectedly withdrew from the scheme, which neither the key developer nor the local authority could have foreseen. Since then, the key developer alongside the authority have made every effort to source a viable provider to deliver the Extra Care within the required timescales but without success including the removal of the 'age inclusive 'aspect of the Extra Care Facility as per Modification Notice 2023/S OOO-037760. The local authority has therefore come to the conclusion that there is no interest in an extra care facility in this area and this element should therefore be removed, in line with conditions set within Regulation 72 (1) c. It is the view of the local authority that the change does not alter the overall nature of the contract. Furthermore, any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract. It is therefore proposed to remove the requirement for an extra care scheme from the overall project and it is the intention that the alternative housing provision in its place will be determined by the local authority through identified need and demand in the area."
