Summary of the contracting process

Trafford Council, a sub-central government public authority located in Manchester, is overseeing a public procurement process titled "Lacy Street Stretford (Design and Build) - PCSA". This project falls under the construction services category and aims to deliver a high-quality, mixed-tenure residential development incorporating affordable housing in Stretford. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with the Pre-Construction Services Agreement (PCSA) already completed, and the contract has been awarded to J. Greenwood (Builders) Limited for an initial stage valued at £249,469. The contract period for the PCSA spans from 27th November 2025 to 12th May 2026, with the potential for a subsequent main construction contract depending on further developments in the project.

This tender represents a notable opportunity for businesses particularly those in the construction and consultancy sectors due to its comprehensive scope including project and design preparation, cost estimation, and construction consultancy services. Firms with expertise in residential development, encompassing architectural design and external works, are well-suited to exploit this opportunity. The open tender route and transparent award criteria ensure that businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, can compete effectively. The project promises a robust platform for business growth with an estimated total build cost, following the PCSA, of approximately £14.7 million, providing significant potential for future engagement and revenue generation during the main construction phase.
