Summary of the contracting process

Newark and Sherwood District Council commissioned the construction of five new homes for its housing revenue account at Church Circle, Ollerton, together with all associated ancillary works. This is a housebuilding project, covering the new properties and the supporting work needed to complete the development. The work is located in Ollerton, Nottinghamshire. The council is the buyer, and the selected contractor is T Balfe Construction Limited. The requirement is specifically for a small residential development rather than a general construction programme; businesses whose work includes delivering new homes and associated site or building works are most closely aligned with its scope.

The procurement is complete and a contractor has been selected. Newark and Sherwood District Council awarded the contract to T Balfe Construction Limited through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 12 May 2026 and runs from 12 May 2026 to 11 February 2027. Its value is £1,165,621.79 excluding VAT and £1,398,746.15 including VAT. The award covers one lot, comprising the five new homes and ancillary works at Church Circle. No competitive evaluation or award criteria are reported, consistent with the direct-award route. The contract is active and the procurement status is complete.

This award shows that the council has procured a small, defined housing development: five new homes with ancillary works, rather than a large multi-site programme. For contractors tracking comparable council housing work, relevant capability would include delivering residential construction and coordinating the associated works needed to bring new properties to completion. A credible supplier would need capacity to manage a focused build for a local authority and to deliver within the contract period. T Balfe Construction Limited, identified as an SME, was selected for this requirement. The route was a below-threshold direct award without competition, so the award does not demonstrate that the council tested suppliers against published competitive criteria. Its value and duration indicate the scale and delivery window of this particular project; they are not a guarantee of future work.
