Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Bromley commissioned a main works contractor for the Castlecombe affordable housing development in Bromley. The project comprises ten new two-storey homes in a terrace: eight three-bedroom homes and two two-bedroom homes, including one accessible home. External works include hard and soft landscaping, front and rear gardens for each home, an eight-bay car park and communal amenity space with outdoor furniture and play equipment. This is a construction works contract covering both the housing build and the associated site and shared-space improvements.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. ETEC Contract Services Limited was selected as the contractor. The contract was signed on 8 October 2026 and runs from 8 October 2026 to 13 December 2027. Its value is £3,688,949 excluding VAT (£4,426,738.80 including VAT). The tender was below the applicable threshold; the procurement method is recorded as unknown. It was a single-lot process. The award information does not state the evaluation criteria or provide further details of the selection basis.

This award shows Bromley’s demand for a main works contractor able to deliver an affordable housing scheme alongside its external works as one coordinated construction project. A credible competitor for a future Castlecombe-type requirement would need the capacity and relevant building experience to construct multiple two-storey homes, including an accessible dwelling, and manage landscaping, gardens, parking and communal amenity works. The scale combines residential construction with external and shared-space delivery, so suppliers able to coordinate these elements and complete them as a single project would be well placed. ETEC Contract Services Limited, an SME, was selected for this contract, demonstrating that a smaller supplier competed successfully for the requirement.
