Summary of the contracting process

Arbour Housing Ltd is currently conducting a procurement process for a "Design and Build Contract Dundrum Road Newcastle" project, under the active tender stage initiated on 31st March 2026. This procurement is for the construction industry, specifically for building construction work, located at 113-115 Dundrum Road in Newcastle, United Kingdom. The contract invites open competition below the threshold, with electronic submissions allowed until 27th April 2026 and enquiries accepted until 22nd April 2026. The project involves designing and building residential housing units, including substantial siteworks and service installations. Construction is slated to commence on 1st June 2026 and conclude by 31st August 2027.

This tender represents a noteworthy opportunity for construction firms, particularly those experienced in residential housing developments, to expand their portfolio and gain recognition within Northern Ireland's devolved regulations framework. Given its focus on both price and quality—weighted at 70% and 30% respectively—it provides an excellent avenue for businesses that can deliver cost-effective yet high-quality construction solutions. The contract is valued at £1,000,000, which is substantial enough to attract medium to large construction enterprises equipped to handle comprehensive project management from design through to completion.
