Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Greenwich is procuring the development and purchase of 66 homes at Kidbrooke Park. This is a construction works opportunity covering the delivery of a residential development, rather than a supply-only or professional services contract. The work is associated with Kidbrooke Park in Greenwich, London. The arrangement involves three Berkeley Group companies: Berkeley Fifty-Five Limited as landowner, Berkeley Homes (East Thames) Limited as developer, and Berkeley Group PLC as guarantor. The requirement is therefore relevant to housebuilders, residential developers and construction businesses able to deliver a substantial housing scheme and work within a landowner-led development structure. The published classification is construction work (CPV 45000000).

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct award, justified under section 41 of the Procurement Act 2023 and paragraph 5 of Schedule 5. The authority concluded that Berkeley Fifty-Five Limited has exclusive development rights as landowner and that Berkeley Homes (East Thames) Limited is the only party able to deliver the required works, with no reasonable alternatives identified. The award date was 18 September 2026. The award value is £29,553,260 excluding VAT, or £35,463,912 including VAT. Berkeley Fifty-Five Limited, Berkeley Homes (East Thames) Limited and Berkeley Group PLC were named jointly as suppliers. The contract period runs from 2 October 2026 to 30 March 2032, with signature scheduled for 2 October 2026. The standstill period ends on 1 October 2026.

For a future requirement of this type, a credible competitor would need residential development and construction capability sufficient to deliver 66 homes, together with control of, or an exclusive right to develop, the relevant sites. The procurement also shows that the buyer values a delivery structure in which the landowner, developer and guarantor are clearly aligned, with the guarantor providing assurance for performance. Relevant businesses would need the financial strength, organisational capacity and housing-delivery experience to support a multi-year development of substantial scale. The direct-award rationale indicates that site-specific rights and the ability to deliver the particular works are decisive: firms without access to the land or a comparable exclusive development arrangement would be poorly placed to compete for this requirement if it returns to market.
