These sites are: Blackwell Close garages & Morris Blitz Court. The Council seeks feedback from interested main contractors to understand the appetite for these projects in the current market and to seek feedback on our proposed procurement strategy. As part of our Preliminary Market Engagement Notice, the Council is seeking feedback on these projects from interested main contractors. We want to understand the current markets' interest and get feedback on our proposed procurement strategy. When responding, we would encourage contractors to provide written responses to the questions listed below: 1. Do you have experience of delivering projects of a similar affordable nature and scale within Hackney or the London area? 2. Would your organisation be interested in bidding for one or both of these projects based on our proposed procurement strategy; if so, which project(s) would your organisation be interested in? 3. Does your organisation have capacity to bid for one or both of these projects in the next 3-6 months, and to commence work around spring 2026? 4. Would you expect cost or programme savings, or any additional social value benefits, to arise to the Council from joint procurement and delivery of the two projects? 5. Does your organisation have experience in delivering residential schemes to achieve Passivhaus or similar low-energy certification? 6. Would you like us to contact you to arrange a 1-2-1 discussion about these projects? We are asking interested main contractors to register interest by the closing date of 23 July 2025 at 12pm. We may contact you to arrange follow-up one-to-one discussions. However, please note that if the Council receives a substantial number of responses, we may have to revert to a group session. There is additional Project information attached to this advert, and once the information has been reviewed and you are interested, please log in and do this before the deadline and respond to the questionnaire by using this link; https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=5c32e4b4-105b-f011-813a-005056b64545&p=2241eb95-058a-e511-80f7-000c29c9ba21 .
