Summary of the contracting process

Choice Housing Ireland Ltd sought submissions for the Multi Element Improvement (MEI) works at The Belgravia, Belfast, under tender title PRN25042 (PF23-024). These works fall within the construction industry, specifically involving building refurbishment and electrical installations, amongst others. The procurement followed an open competition method below the financial threshold, with important dates such as the tender end date on 10th December 2025 and the contract period from 16th April 2026 to 16th April 2027. The procurement process has advanced through various stages, culminating in the award notification on 25th March 2026, with an anticipated contract signature by 13th April 2026.
