## Summary

The Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council (Rotherham MBC) is seeking tenders for the project titled "18-056 Modern Methods of Construction - Pods" aimed at increasing affordable housing in Rotherham. The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 26th September 2018. This initiative targets the construction of ten small 'pod' homes distributed across two sites in Yorkshire and the Humber: Vine Close and Chatham Street.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for construction firms, particularly those experienced in modern methods of construction (MMC) and modular housing solutions. Businesses interested in delivering sustainable and cost-effective housing solutions within the construction industry would be well-suited to compete for this contract. With a total budget of £400,000, the successful contractor could also position themselves for future projects, as the council anticipates expanding this pilot scheme into a larger programme based on its success.
