UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Extra Care Development Framework, initiated on 1st May 2026 by Cornwall Council, focuses on developing new extra care housing in strategic locations across Cornwall. This initiative aligns with Cornwall's Supported and Specialist Housing Strategy 2023-2050, addressing future service demands. Recently moved to the Award stage, the contract involves construction work with a gross budget of £220,000,000. Notable suppliers include Housing 21 and Sanctuary Affordable Housing, awarded on 1st April 2026. The open procurement method encourages broad competition, with framework agreements ensuring long-term engagement. The initial 18-month contract period begins on 1st July 2026, potentially extending to a maximum of eight years, with subsequent frameworks being re-opened for more supplier participation within the initial term.

This tender presents significant growth prospects for businesses in construction and care sectors, particularly those adept in extra care housing schemes. Large-scale registered providers of affordable housing are well-suited to compete, required to grant nomination rights to Cornwall Council for extra care schemes developed. By facilitating an open framework scheme over eight years, businesses can secure sustained engagement, potentially benefitting from estimated aggregated total value contracts worth £220,000,000. This initiative not only supports infrastructure development in Cornwall but also offers various entry points and long-term opportunities for suitably qualified suppliers aiming to expand within this niche market.
