UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Horsham District Homes Limited commissioned clerk of works services for its affordable housing development at Dukes Square, on Denne Road in Horsham, West Sussex. The project is for nine affordable homes on the former MT garage site. The clerk of works role is construction consultancy: overseeing and checking construction work on the client’s behalf as the development is delivered. Horsham District Council managed the procurement as agent for Horsham District Homes Limited. The main construction works were intended to use the JCT Design & Build Contract 2024. This requirement relates specifically to quality oversight and monitoring for the Dukes Square housing scheme, rather than the construction contract itself.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to MGAC LLP following a closed request-for-quotation exercise. It was a below-threshold procurement; the method is otherwise recorded as unknown. There was one lot. The award is active, and the contract was signed on 9 October 2026. Its term runs from 9 October 2026 to 31 October 2028. The contract value is £33,330 excluding VAT and £39,996 including VAT. The published information gives no award evaluation criteria, so the basis on which quotations were assessed cannot be stated. The contracting authority was Horsham District Homes Limited, with Horsham District Council acting as procuring agent.

For suppliers considering similar work for Horsham District Homes, this award shows demand for independent construction consultancy to monitor delivery of affordable housing. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate the practical ability to inspect building works, identify defects or departures from requirements, and provide clear oversight and reporting throughout a housing development. Experience working alongside a project delivered under a design-and-build arrangement would be relevant, as would capacity to maintain a consistent site presence over a multi-year construction programme. The requirement was for one development of nine homes, so suppliers should be able to support a focused, relatively small housing scheme rather than only large portfolios. The previous award followed a closed request-for-quotation exercise, indicating a route based on invited suppliers rather than an open competition.
