Summary of the contracting process

Swindon Borough Council is seeking qualified service providers for a procurement process involving the demolition and construction of residential dwellings at Holly and Stuart Close in Swindon. The procurement is divided into two lots, allowing tenderers the flexibility to bid for one or both projects. The project involves construction work classified under CPV code 45211100 and falls within the public works category. This open procurement process, governed by legal basis 2023/54, is currently in the tender stage, with submissions due by 16th February 2026. Key dates include the deadline for tender clarifications on 9th February 2026, with the contract period starting on 24th April 2026 and concluding on 23rd April 2027. All communication and submissions are conducted via the ProContract tender portal.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction firms, particularly those experienced in housing projects, to engage in public sector work and broaden their market presence. Companies with competencies in quality construction, project delivery, and adherence to social value initiatives will find the tender criteria advantageous. The division into two lots provides scope for smaller businesses to compete effectively by targeting specific parts of the project, while larger firms have the capacity to manage both sites simultaneously, offering competitive pricing and demonstrating quality assurance through separate management teams for each lot. The procurement method selected ensures open competition, providing a level playing field for all qualified bidders looking to expand their portfolio in the Swindon area.
