Summary of the contracting process

Choice Housing Ireland Limited commissioned competitive land, design and build opportunities for social housing projects under the Social Housing Development Programme. The requirement covered development proposals of up to 15 housing units from each supplier, with the possibility of appointing more than one developer. The work combines securing or providing land, architectural and planning design, engineering and surveying services, and construction of houses and multi-dwelling buildings. Delivery is in the Newtownabbey area of Northern Ireland. This is a public-sector housing development requirement led by a public undertaking, so it is relevant to developers, housebuilders and multidisciplinary teams able to bring forward small residential schemes and deliver them through construction.

The open, below-threshold competition is complete and has been awarded. One bid was received and Kenny Developments Ltd was selected on 28 January 2026. The award value was £2,060,000 excluding VAT (£2,472,000 including VAT). The tender had one lot, evaluated on quality and technical merit at 30% and price at 70%; bids closed on 28 November 2025 and enquiries closed on 21 November 2025. The awarded contract was signed on 30 June 2026. Its recorded value is £1,710,000 excluding VAT (£2,052,000 including VAT), with a contract period from 1 July 2026 to 1 January 2028. The process was below the applicable threshold.

A credible competitor for this requirement would need to combine residential development capability with control of suitable land, architectural design, planning, engineering, surveying and construction delivery. The scope favours suppliers able to take responsibility for a complete land, design and build solution rather than a single construction trade. Experience delivering houses or small multi-dwelling schemes, coordinating a multidisciplinary design team and meeting social-housing development requirements would strengthen a future response. Suppliers should also be able to demonstrate reliable technical delivery and competitive pricing, since price carried the greater evaluation weighting. The single bid and appointment of a developer indicate that this buyer has an established need for integrated local housing development expertise.
