## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Radius Housing Association Limited focuses on the competitive land, design, and build in the Mid and East Antrim Council Area for social housing units. The buying organisation is based in Holywood, United Kingdom, under Northern Irish devolved regulations. This contract, identified as RAD177, falls under the industry category of construction work and is currently at the award stage following an open competitive flexible procedure. The key dates include the contract signing on 31st March 2026, with an anticipated construction completion by 30th June 2029. The procurement process adheres to the UK Procurement Act 2023 and requires construction commencement by March 2026, with a maximum construction period of 24 months. The procurement involves multiple sites, each providing a minimum of 10 units, ensuring diverse house types including wheelchair accommodation.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those skilled in designing and building social housing with mixed tenure considerations. As Radius Housing Association encourages mixed developments, suppliers can leverage this chance to incorporate both private and affordable housing components, broadening their market reach. The award was secured by Q Street Assets Limited, a Belfast-based SME, highlighting the potential for small and medium-sized enterprises to successfully compete in such tenders. Businesses experienced with public housing requirements and those capable of delivering quality and cost-effective construction solutions will find this tender especially beneficial for growth, potentially allowing them to establish solid collaborations within the region.

## Notice

Each Development (an individual Development Contract) is for the provision of social housing units in the Mid and East Antrim Council Area by means of design and build, where the Developer provides the land, designs, constructs and completes the scheme for Radius in accordance with the DfC Housing Association Guide, Employers Requirements and statutory body requirements. Radius will consider mixed tenure developments that is where some of the homes are designed and built to be social housing and some may be private or affordable standard homes. It is a programme requirement to commence the construction of the units no later than March 2026 with an envisaged construction period of no more than 24 months. The units can be delivered over a number of sites or on one site. In the interests of providing an efficient housing management service, any one site must provide a minimum of 10 units. The developers proposals must ensure each site includes a range of house types. It is a normal assumption from NIHE that 10% of any development should consist of standard wheelchair accommodation.
