Summary of the contracting process

The Carnarvon Terrace Redevelopment Project, procured by Essex Procurement Partnership on behalf of Tendring District Council, is a significant construction endeavour aiming to transform a site in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex. The project, part of a broader £60 million regeneration initiative, includes demolishing an existing steel-framed car park and developing 28 new residential apartments, a replacement multi-storey public car park, community spaces, and urban realms with diverse landscaping. This project is currently in the tender stage with a completion deadline set for March 2028. Interested businesses are encouraged to submit their bids by 12.00pm on 5th June 2026. The tender process follows an open procurement method, with site visits available for prospective bidders, allowing for engagement with the tender pack, which includes detailed requirements and additional information crucial for bid preparation.

This tender presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses in the construction sector, especially those specialising in large-scale redevelopment projects. Ideal candidates would include firms with expertise in residential apartment construction, car park development, and urban landscaping. The potential for growth is substantial, given the project's complexity and scale, involving a construction value up to £17 million. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to apply, as the project’s scope provides ample room for companies to showcase their technical prowess and innovative solutions in achieving community-enhancing results. Successful bidders will collaborate with Tendring District Council and Baily Garner LLP, the employer’s agent, to deliver the project efficiently within the stipulated timeframe and quality standards.
