The procurement aims to revitalise the area with high-quality, 100% affordable housing, which includes a mix of social rent, affordable rent, and shared ownership. The project, currently in the tender stage, invites architectural services to not only design aesthetically appealing, net-zero carbon housing but also to incorporate modern methods of construction (MMC) and sustainable solutions. Key deadlines include the tender period ending on 13 November 2023, and the final award decision which was made on 27 June 2024. The contract period is anticipated to run until 30 June 2025, subject to project demands. This opportunity provides substantial growth possibilities for architectural firms, particularly those experienced in sustainable design and MMC. Companies specialising in social housing and those capable of delivering high-density, mixed-tenure developments will find this tender particularly advantageous. The buyer, CHP, through its competitive procedure with negotiation, seeks to partner with firms that can contribute to a lasting and inspirational legacy for Chelmsford’s community. As such, SMEs with a focus on quality and cost-efficient solutions stand to benefit greatly from participating in this procurement process. ## Notice Through Myriad Housing, CHP is seeking Architectural design services to support the development and regeneration of a site located at Andrews Place, Chelmsford. The scope of the project is to provide Chelmsford with an attractive, high-quality and 100% affordable development in a highly sustainable location. The project is seeking to deliver an impactful and inspirational scheme with aspirational designs for social housing that will create a lasting legacy for the city of Chelmsford, in a highly visible location. The intended housing types include; 20% 'later living' housing, and 80% general needs housing. The intended tenure type is for 100% affordable, including a mix of Social Rent, Affordable Rent and Shared Ownership. The mix of dwellings is to be developed to meet the housing needs identified within the Local Authority area and is anticipated to provide a mix of dwellings including apartments, bungalows and town houses, including 4 bedroomed properties; all compliant to NDSS standards. Proposals are to maximise densities on the site, as well as addressing CHPs and Chelmsford City Council's (the Council) Place Shaping and Public Realm requirements, providing new focal points of public interest (including the Council's 'public art' policy requirements). It is anticipated that the re-development of the site will provide an opportunity to enhance biodiversity in the area. CHP require the project to achieve a net zero carbon status, achieving Future Homes Standards and incorporating the use of MMC and Sustainable design solutions as appropriate and on a cost effective basis (both in terms of capital build and future maintenance costs). The contract period is anticipated and may be subject to change to meet the demands of the project. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Through Myriad Housing, CHP is seeking Architectural design services to support the development and regeneration of a site located at Andrews Place, Chelmsford.
