The tender is in the update stage, with the project being let in phases, starting with an initial order for 142 plots out of a total of 272. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically classified under CPV code 44111100 for bricks. The procurement method adopted is the open procedure, which invites competitive bids from qualified suppliers. The project has an estimated value of GBP 700,000, with a potential gross value of GBP 840,000. It is above the threshold, indicating significant business opportunities. The tendering process will conclude with the submission deadline set for 3rd October 2025 at 10:00 AM, and awards will be made by 8th October 2025. The project is anchored in Coventry but focused on deliveries in the UKH region.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities primarily for companies dealing in brick manufacturing and supply. Given that the contract is poised for a phased rollout, long-term partnerships can be formed, which can lead to steady business for the duration up to or extending past April 2028. The evaluation criteria assign significant weight to price (60%), quality (30%), and social value (10%). Therefore, businesses that can offer competitive pricing while maintaining high-quality standards and showcasing social value initiatives will find themselves well-suited for this opportunity. Companies that can effectively schedule brick deliveries in alignment with Orbit's build programme will gain a strategic edge, making this tender ideal for those with strong logistical capabilities and a commitment to quality assurance.
