The buying organisation is based in Holywood, United Kingdom, under Northern Irish devolved regulations. This contract, identified as RAD177, falls under the industry category of construction work and is currently at the award stage following an open competitive flexible procedure. The key dates include the contract signing on 31st March 2026, with an anticipated construction completion by 30th June 2029. The procurement process adheres to the UK Procurement Act 2023 and requires construction commencement by March 2026, with a maximum construction period of 24 months. The procurement involves multiple sites, each providing a minimum of 10 units, ensuring diverse house types including wheelchair accommodation.

The award was secured by Q Street Assets Limited, a Belfast-based SME, highlighting the potential for small and medium-sized enterprises to successfully compete in such tenders. Businesses experienced with public housing requirements and those capable of delivering quality and cost-effective construction solutions will find this tender especially beneficial for growth, potentially allowing them to establish solid collaborations within the region.
