Summary of the contracting process

Irwell Valley Developments Limited is procuring multi-disciplinary consultancy services for the Haughton Green housing estate regeneration project in Greater Manchester. The programme covers new-build housing and environmental improvements. The appointed lead consultant is expected to manage a professional team covering employer’s agent, architecture, planning, ground investigation, structural engineering, civil engineering, principal designer duties under CDM and building regulations, mechanical and electrical design, low-energy advice and ecology assessment. A business may act as lead consultant with these capabilities in-house, or assemble a team using identified subcontractors for disciplines it cannot provide itself. This is a services requirement, classified under research and development consultancy services, and is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has reached the award stage following a two-stage competitive flexible procedure: invitation to participate followed by an invitation to tender. Three bids reached the final stage. CPC was selected for the single lot on 25 August 2026, with an awarded value of £2,517,835 excluding VAT and £3,021,402 including VAT. The award is pending completion of the standstill period, with the contract planned to run from 9 September 2026 to 9 September 2029. The original estimated value was £786,000 excluding VAT and £943,000 including VAT. Evaluation was based on quality at 60% and price at 40%; price used the total contract price and quality was assessed against questions in the tender documents. Expressions of interest closed on 6 April 2026.

This outcome demonstrates demand from Irwell Valley Developments Limited for a lead consultant capable of coordinating a broad regeneration design and professional-services team in Greater Manchester. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable experience managing housing estate regeneration, integrating new-build and environmental works, and controlling interfaces between design, planning, engineering, ecology, energy and statutory compliance. The requirement favours organisations able to provide several disciplines directly while responsibly managing specialist partners or subcontractors for the remainder. Strong quality-led tender writing is important because quality carried greater evaluation weight than price. The opportunity also indicates that the buyer is willing to consider small and medium-sized enterprises, provided they can demonstrate sufficient coordination capability, technical breadth and delivery capacity for a multi-year programme.
