Summary of the contracting process

Thirteen Housing Group Limited is purchasing land and commissioning a new-build residential development at Preston Road, Hull. The work is to construct multiple homes, with Keepmoat Homes Limited having assembled the site and completed preparatory design and planning work. The land purchase is linked to delivery: Keepmoat will transfer the site only if it also carries out the development, and the land is not being offered separately. The project is conditional on planning permission and confirmation of Homes England funding. The buying organisation is Thirteen Housing Group Limited, a housing provider. The development is in Hull, East Yorkshire.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Keepmoat Homes Limited on 23 September 2026. The awarded value is £12,140,000. The contract period runs from 30 November 2026 to 30 November 2028. The requirement was handled as a direct award: Thirteen’s stated rationale was that Keepmoat owns the development land and will transfer it only on condition that it completes the works, which Thirteen considers gives Keepmoat exclusive rights to carry them out. The award is conditional on planning permission and confirmation of Homes England funding. The process was for a single lot. No award evaluation criteria are stated in the supplied details.

For a comparable future Preston Road requirement, credible competitors would need the capacity to deliver a multi-home residential development and, crucially, access to the site or a viable route to secure the land while undertaking the construction. This award shows that Thirteen’s route to the development depended on a landowner tying the site transfer to delivery of the works, rather than a standalone construction competition. Keepmoat’s position was strengthened by having assembled the land and undertaken preparatory design and planning work. Suppliers seeking to compete for this buyer’s comparable requirement should therefore be able to coordinate site acquisition, development preparation and housing construction, and demonstrate the ability to progress the project subject to planning permission and Homes England funding confirmation.

Notice Description

Thirteen is seeking to enter a contract with Keepmoat Homes Limited to purchase land and construct residential units at Preston Road in Hull. The land required for the development has been assembled by Keepmoat Homes Limited which has carried out (on its own account and not on behalf of Thirteen) significant preparatory work in the design and preparation of the development, including preparing designs, reports and other details to acquire planning permission

Procurement Information
