Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "New Build Development - Balham Avenue, Hull" is managed by Synergy Housing Solutions Limited, a subsidiary of Together Housing Association Ltd, based in Halifax, UK. This process features the direct award of a contract to Lovell Partnerships Limited for the construction of 75 residential units in Hull. The legal basis for this project falls under the Procurement Act 2023, with a contract value of £14,116,074. Key dates for this project include the start date of 3rd June 2026 and the potential end date of 3rd July 2028. The procurement method used is direct award due to Lovell Partnerships' exclusive rights to the land, making them the only viable supplier for this development.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses able to engage in building construction work, specifically those with experience in residential developments. The exclusive nature of the award—given Lovell Partnerships' existing development agreement—emphasises the importance of establishing strategic partnerships and identifying unique opportunities within similar frameworks and agreements. Large-scale construction firms, like Lovell Partnerships, with the ability to negotiate exclusive land rights, may find this tender particularly beneficial for business growth. Moreover, the option to incorporate solar installations presents further potential for companies specialising in sustainable technologies, contingent upon available funding from Synergy Housing Solutions.

Notice Title

New Build Development - Balham Avenue, Hull

Notice Description

This contract relates to the construction of 75 residential units at Balham Avenue, Hull.

Procurement Information

Lovell Parternships Limited, by virtue of an existing development agreement with Hull City Council in respect of the Ings Regeneration, have an exclusive right to the land comprising the development site. Lovell Partnerships Limited agreed to sell this land to Together Housing Association Ltd on the condition that Lovell Partnerships Limited be appointed to carry out the proposed development. It is therefore not possible for the development at this location to be delivered by an alternative supplier. Synergy Housing Solutions Ltd, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Together Housing Association Ltd, therefore considers that Lovell Partnerships Limited have an exclusive right and only they can carry out the works required. Additionally, Synergy Housing Solutions Ltd considers that there are no alternative developments which could be delivered as an alternative in the locality and with the planning permission in place. Synergy Housing Solutions Ltd therefore entered into a contract with Lovell Partnerships Ltd directly on this basis.

This notice has a copy of the redacted contract included, which is a requirement of the Procurement Act 2023. Find a Tender service currently doesn't have the functionality to edit the notices to attach the contract to the UK7 that this notice is linked to and therefore issuing a contract change notice is the only way to meet this obligation.",
