Summary of the contracting process

Plymouth Community Homes Limited commissioned the development and construction of 48 units at the Scredda site. The requirement is building construction work, covering both developer and builder responsibilities. The buyer is a Plymouth-based community homes provider, and the named delivery site is Scredda in Plymouth. The procurement concerns a substantial residential development rather than a discrete supply of materials or a standalone professional service. It is therefore relevant to principal contractors, residential developers and construction businesses able to take responsibility for delivering a multi-unit housing scheme. The awarded supplier, Classic Builders (South West) Limited, is a large Plymouth-based construction company, indicating that the requirement was placed with an established local building business capable of combining land and construction responsibilities.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 18 February 2026 to Classic Builders (South West) Limited. It used a direct award rather than an open competition because the developer owned the land; the stated rationale also classifies the arrangement as involving exclusive rights. The award value is £11,495,000 gross. The award contract period runs from 16 March 2026 to 15 March 2028. A contract was signed on 30 March 2026, with the active contract period recorded as 1 April 2026 to 1 April 2028, and the contract value is £11,495,000 gross. One lot was completed and awarded. Contract performance metrics cover attendance, innovation and cost awareness.

For businesses that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from Plymouth Community Homes for a sizeable, multi-unit residential development delivered through a combined developer and builder model. A credible future competitor would need the capacity to manage construction of 48 homes, coordinate the full delivery of a housing site and control costs across a substantial works package. The successful supplier’s position as the land owner was central to the direct award, so businesses seeking comparable work would need to understand how land ownership or development control affects procurement routes. Evidence of reliable attendance, practical innovation and disciplined cost management would also be important when demonstrating suitability for this buyer’s requirements.
