## Summary

The procurement process involves Accord Housing Association Ltd, which is seeking services for the "CHARM - Groundworks" project located in Redditch, Worcestershire. This initiative falls under the construction industry category and is currently in the Award stage, following the tender period that ended on 1st April 2021. The total contract value is £214,453 and the contract period is set from 6th July 2021 to 1st December 2021. Given the urgency of this tender, it was processed using an Accelerated Open Procedure, indicating a need for swift action due to prior publicity issues.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the construction sector, particularly those with experience in groundworks and environmentally sustainable building practices. Companies that specialise in construction services, earthmoving, and site preparations would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Additionally, organisations focused on innovative approaches in building practices could leverage this opportunity to expand their market presence and contribute to the development of virtually plastic-free homes.

## Notice

This is a subcontracts package to carry out groundworks for the CHARM virtually plastic free homes in Redditch, Worcestershire. The main tender information is in the Invitation to Tender document (supplied in PDF and Word versions in Accord Website - https://accordgroup.org.uk/about/supply-to-us/charm). All Tender documents need to be with the tender return envelope (purple), see Invitation to Tender Document for more information Tenders or requests to participate must be submitted to the following address: Accord Housing Association 178 Birmingham Road West Bromwich B70 6QG Additional information: Accelerated Open Procedure Justification: This procurement procedure is an accelerated open procedure as there is urgency in publicity of this tender. This is because we previously failed to publish this on Contracts Finder and only using Find a Tender Service. Therefore, we had to re-tender this work package and if we were to go through the standard procedure, it would lead to loss of finance due to interest cost on the site and on costs associated with the building site set up. In addition the grant programme has a number of grant milestones that the additional delay would put at a risk the spending of the EU public funding.
