## Summary

The public procurement process involves South Cambridgeshire District Council awarding a contract for the construction of 63 affordable dwellings at Babraham Road, Sawston. This project, classified under CPV code 45211000, entails construction work for multi-dwelling buildings and individual houses. The contract, valued at £12,350,135, was awarded on 22 October 2019 and is scheduled to commence on 1 December 2019, concluding by 30 June 2021. The procurement method employed here was not standardised, as the contract was awarded without prior publication of a call for competition.

This tender presents opportunities for growth specifically in the construction sector, targeting businesses that specialise in residential building projects, particularly those capable of delivering affordable housing solutions. Construction firms with experience in multi-dwelling developments and a solid track record in handling section 106 planning obligations would be well-positioned to compete for similar contracts in future. Businesses that can demonstrate compliance with planning regulations and strong project management skills will find this sector increasingly appealing.
