UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Homes England is procuring design services for the George & Railway Hotel in Bristol, a Grade 2 Listed Asset acquired from Bristol City Council through land assembly connected with the Bristol Temple Quarter Redevelopment Programme. The immediate purpose is to develop an external stabilising scaffold system for the building, which is urgently needed to prevent potential collapse into the surrounding highway. The requirement includes project and design preparation and cost estimation. Work is delivered in Bristol for Homes England, the public body responsible for the procurement. This opportunity is relevant to firms combining structural or temporary works design with practical experience of stabilising historic or listed buildings, particularly where public safety, highway interfaces and redevelopment programmes are involved.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Homes England used a below-threshold direct award without competition. TRS GROUP (SOUTH WEST) LIMITED was selected as supplier for the single requirement. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and runs from 4 August 2026 to 9 November 2026. Its value is £20,000 excluding VAT, or £24,000 including VAT. The procurement was treated as a services contract and evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The requirement is recorded as one completed lot covering the George & Railway Hotel design work. The contract remains active, with delivery focused on the design and preparation needed for the stabilising scaffold system.

This procurement demonstrates a specific demand from Homes England for specialist design support where a listed building presents an immediate structural and public-safety risk. Suppliers best placed for comparable work would be able to prepare practical external stabilisation designs, estimate costs and coordinate temporary works around an occupied or operational highway environment. Relevant capability includes understanding listed-building constraints, assessing urgent interventions, producing design information that can be acted on by scaffold or temporary works contractors, and working within a wider land assembly or regeneration programme. Experience of liaising with public bodies, local authorities and heritage stakeholders would strengthen credibility. Competitors should be able to show that they can respond to urgent asset-protection requirements while producing clear, buildable and proportionate design solutions for Homes England.
