UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Thirteen Housing Group Limited commissioned the construction of a new-build affordable housing development at Coniscliffe Park in Darlington. The works cover 21 affordable dwellings on the buyer’s land, making this a residential construction opportunity rather than a standalone consultancy, maintenance or supplies contract. The requirement is classified as construction work. The buyer is a housing group based in Middlesbrough and the development is located in Darlington. The project will suit businesses involved in delivering complete new-build housing developments, including principal building contractors and housebuilders able to manage construction activity from development commencement through to completion. Its focus is the delivery of affordable homes as part of a defined housing development for a registered housing provider.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Taylor Wimpey. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 25 June 2026 and awarded on 26 June 2026, with the contract period running from 26 June 2026 to 31 May 2030. The contract value is £3,615,000 gross. There was one completed lot covering the development works. Taylor Wimpey is the active awarded supplier. The published outcome therefore records a completed procurement for the Darlington affordable housing scheme, rather than an opportunity for new bids. The buyer’s stated route was a below-threshold direct award without competition, so no competitive tender evaluation basis is recorded for this award.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Thirteen Housing Group for principal contractors or housebuilders able to deliver affordable residential development on the buyer’s land. A credible competitor for comparable work would need proven capability in new-build housing, including construction management, programme control, coordination of trades and delivery to the required quality and completion standards. Experience of working for housing providers and delivering affordable homes would be commercially relevant, alongside the financial and operational capacity to manage a substantial multi-year development. Taylor Wimpey’s selection also indicates that an established large housebuilder can satisfy this buyer’s requirement. Businesses seeking future work of this type should position themselves around end-to-end residential delivery and a clear record of completing similar housing schemes.
