This initiative aligns with Cornwall's Supported and Specialist Housing Strategy 2023-2050, addressing future service demands. Recently moved to the Award stage, the contract involves construction work with a gross budget of £220,000,000. Notable suppliers include Housing 21 and Sanctuary Affordable Housing, awarded on 1st April 2026. The open procurement method encourages broad competition, with framework agreements ensuring long-term engagement. The initial 18-month contract period begins on 1st July 2026, potentially extending to a maximum of eight years, with subsequent frameworks being re-opened for more supplier participation within the initial term. This tender presents significant growth prospects for businesses in construction and care sectors, particularly those adept in extra care housing schemes. Large-scale registered providers of affordable housing are well-suited to compete, required to grant nomination rights to Cornwall Council for extra care schemes developed. By facilitating an open framework scheme over eight years, businesses can secure sustained engagement, potentially benefitting from estimated aggregated total value contracts worth £220,000,000. This initiative not only supports infrastructure development in Cornwall but also offers various entry points and long-term opportunities for suitably qualified suppliers aiming to expand within this niche market. ## Notice Development of new extra care housing. In 2023, the Council published its Supported and Specialist Housing Strategy, Cornwall Supported & Specialist Housing Strategy 2023-2050 which sets out the future demand for services. This procurement tender exercise is for the development of new extra care housing schemes in strategic locations across Cornwall to meet the demand set out in the Specialist and Supported Housing Strategy and Market Position Statement. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Renewal: Please see the Tender Documents for further information. ### Planning Information 10 Sept 2024 Publication of Prior Information Notice – market engagement invitation for combined Extra Care and Home Care 24 Sept 2024 Joint Care Homes and Extra Care market engagement event 04 Dec 2024 Re-Publication of Prior Information Notice – market engagement invitation for the individual projects following decision to separate the two elements extra care and home care in to separate procurement exercises 08 Jan 2025 Extra Care pricing methodology workshop 16 Jan 2025 Extra Care specification workshop 22 Jan 2025 Joint Care Homes and Extra Care commercial model workshop In order to view the engagement information please register and express interest to the project please follow the link to the supplyingthesouthwest portal - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=65e2ac42-8bb1-ef11-8132-005056b64545&p=696a9836-1895-e511-8105-000c29c9ba21 ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/040228-2026 | | Notice type | UK6 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Planning, Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 May 2026 | | Submission deadline | 15 Jan 2026 | | Future notice date | 16 Jun 2025 | | Award date | 31 Mar 2026 | | Contract period | 30 Jun 2026 - 31 Dec 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £220,000,000 | | Lots value | £220,000,000 | | Awards value | £220,000,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Pending | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL COUNCIL | | Locality | TRURO | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR1 3AY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Truro Boscawen & Redannick | | Westminster constituency | Truro and Falmouth | | Delivery location | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly, TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 2 | | Supplier names | HOUSING 21; SANCTUARY AFFORDABLE HOUSING | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 1 May 2026 at 07:13 - Award - UK6 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/040228-2026 - 16 Sep 2025 at 06:57 - TenderUpdate - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/056767-2025 - 12 Sep 2025 at 17:55 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/056376-2025 - 6 May 2025 at 12:51 - Planning - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/019102-2025 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/040228-2026 1st May 2026 - Contract award notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/056767-2025 16th September 2025 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/056376-2025 12th September 2025 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/019102-2025 6th May 2025 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - http://www.cornwall.gov.uk - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=65e2ac42-8bb1-ef11-8132-005056b64545&p=696a9836-1895-e511-8105-000c29c9ba21 - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
