Summary of the contracting process

Guinness Developments Limited (GDL), a subsidiary of The Guinness Partnership Ltd., has completed the procurement process for a traditional land and build package deal located on the East side of Petersfield Road, Havant, also known as Bartons Road, Havant. The project falls under the "Building construction work" category, focusing on constructing 90 affordable homes. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with the contract being signed on 3rd March 2026. This process was facilitated under the Public Contract Regulations 2015 due to transition arrangements after the Procurement Act 2023. The procurement method was negotiated without publication due to specific conditions, including the lack of competition for technical reasons and the supplier's willingness to sell the land only as part of the development arrangements.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses involved in building construction, particularly those with expertise in residential development. Stonebond Properties (Guildford) Limited, an SME, was awarded the contract suggesting that other small and medium enterprises could also find similar opportunities in this sector. The project's focus on affordable housing meets significant unmet need in Havant, thereby aligning with local development goals. Businesses with the capacity for land development and collaboration with public entities would be well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders, especially in regions with housing shortages and development needs.

Notice Title

Package Deal on Land on the East side of Petersfield Road, Havant, also known as Bartons Road, Havant

Notice Description

Traditional land and build "package deal" for the construction of 90 affordable homes on land.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Guinness Developments Limited ("GDL") intends to enter into an agreement for the purchase of land and an associated build contract with housing developer Stonebond Properties (Guildford) Limited. This is a traditional land and build "package deal" brought to GDL by Stonebond Properties. The scheme will result in the construction of 90 affordable homes on land on the East side of Petersfield Road, Havant, also know as Bartons Road, Havant. It will comprise 58 rented and 32 shared ownership properties. Stonebond have arranged to purchase the site from a private vendor and have submitted a detailed planning application. The package deal will be comprised of GDL entering into a contract for the construction of new homes on the land with Stonebond Properties (which is the subject of this notice), and a simultaneous purchase of the land by GDL. The contracting authority for the purpose of the Procurement Regulations will be GDL. GDL is a subsidiary of The Guinness Partnership Ltd. (TGPL) but is a contracting authority in its own right. Ownership of the properties will be transferred from GDL to TGPL upon practical completion. The transaction for the purchase of land will be directly between Stonebond Properties and TGPL. Note: Scoping and initial negotiations on this package deal commenced in July 2024 and were substantially underway prior to the implementation of the Procurement Act 2023. Guinness' view is therefore that this award is covered by the transition provisions built into PA23 and therefore this contract award is subject to PCR2015.

Procurement Information

The direct award without prior publication justification applies because: (a) the Supplier is prepared to sell the land only as part of arrangements that also include its development. (b) GDL and Havant Borough Council have significant unmet need in the locality of the development, evidenced through long housing waiting lists. (c) There is no other land on the market which is available for social housing development within reasonable timeframes local to the unmet need for development.
