Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Stonewater Limited, a sub-central government public authority based in Leicester, involves a tender for the construction of 29 new dwellings, including accessible units, along Stopham Road, Pulborough. This project is classified under the construction work industry with a total value of £10,250,000. The procurement is at the tender stage with an open procedure method, allowing for electronic submissions until 2nd October 2026. The development, which includes the construction of an estate spine road, is set to start on 14th December 2026 and complete by 14th March 2028. Key dates to note are the enquiry period end on 11th September 2026, and the award period ending on 12th November 2026.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for construction businesses, including SMEs and VCSEs, looking to expand their portfolio in public housing projects. With the scope involving both construction and landscaping, companies with expertise in residential building, infrastructure enhancement, and public road works would be particularly well-suited to compete. The open procedure demonstrates a fair opportunity for interested parties to submit competitive tenders, particularly benefiting those with the capacity to balance price and quality efficiently, as these will be evaluated with a 70% weighting on price and 30% on technical quality responses.
