## Summary

The procurement process for the development of the Alexandra Docks in Grimsby is being conducted by North East Lincolnshire Borough Council. The project, currently in the award stage, involves a significant construction opportunity with a framework agreement with a single operator. The estimated value of the contract is £100 million, and it spans a 10-year period, focusing on housing development at Garth Lane. The procurement method used is competitive dialogue, classified under the construction industry category, with the completion status recently confirmed. Key dates include the contract signing on 31st October 2025, following an awarded tender process initiated in 2023, with Grimsby, located in the North East Lincolnshire region, serving as the primary site for the development.

This tender provides a robust opportunity for significant business growth, especially for large-scale construction firms with the expertise in delivering phased development projects over an extended period. Firms that can demonstrate strong design proposals, effective delivery strategies, and a commitment to social value are particularly well-suited to compete. The project’s framework agreement approach allows for a partnership that could drive long-term investment and development in the region, including potential direct awards for additional phases based on performance. Companies with a focus on sustainable development and those able to work creatively within a selective procurement method will find strategic partnership potential in this large-scale regeneration initiative.

## Notice

This is an opportunity for the delivery of the development of the Alexandra Dock area in Grimsby. The opportunity includes two contracts: primarily a Development Agreement for Phase 1 of the Scheme, a housing development on Garth Lane; secondly, a Framework Development Agreement under which individual phased Development Agreements for the whole site may (but are not guaranteed) to be directly awarded to the winning developer over a ten year development period provided the developer can demonstrate performance in delivery of Garth Lane (and subsequent phases). Due to the nature of this opportunity, NELC has calculated the value of this opportunity as it would a concession agreement i.e. by reference to an estimate of the likely developer turnover after development of the entire site and not by reference by payments to be made from the Authority to the successful partner. Please see the Procurement Documentation for further details. Funding from the Authority to the chosen partner shall be available grant funding only. Further details of the Authority's requirements under the contracts and other relevant information are detailed in the Information Memorandum at Schedule 2. Please refer to the suite of procurement documentation for further information available at: https://yortender.eu-supply.com/login.asp?B=YORTENDER
