Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Greenwich commissioned construction of 24 new homes for affordable rent under its Greenwich Builds programme. The work covers three schemes: 12 homes on Wricklemarsh Road, six on Zangwill Road and six on Viola Avenue. Planning permission had been secured for all three sites. The council’s stated purpose is to increase affordable housing, reduce spending on temporary accommodation and help address homelessness in the borough. This is a housing construction contract, delivered in Greenwich, London. The requirement is for a complete multi-site build rather than a single small development, making it relevant to contractors able to deliver residential construction across several schemes.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Building Associates Ltd. The award was made on 2 April 2026; the contract was signed on 28 August 2026. Its gross value is £9,966,208.80 (net £8,305,174). The contract period runs from 21 September 2026 to 24 April 2028. The tender was a single lot using an open procedure. Three valid bids were received. Evaluation weighted quality at 60% and price at 40%; economic and technical selection requirements were set out in the tender pack. The original tender estimated the lot at £9 million gross. The stated contract milestones cover safer construction, delivery against key milestones and delivery within budget.

For contractors considering similar Greenwich housing work, this award demonstrates demand for affordable homes delivered across multiple sites, with the council linking the programme to reducing temporary accommodation costs and tackling homelessness. A credible competitor would need the capacity to manage a 24-home residential build across three schemes, coordinate delivery against project milestones and control costs. The evaluation placed greater weight on quality than price, so evidence of sound construction planning and delivery, alongside a competitive price, would be important. The contract’s agreed performance measures also point to expectations around construction safety, programme delivery and budget control. Building Associates Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise, won after three valid bids, showing that the requirement was within reach of established smaller contractors as well as larger firms. The work is specifically residential construction for Greenwich’s affordable-rent programme.
