The proposed development comprises approximately 550–568 homes, including replacement of 250 existing social-rent homes, additional affordable housing, shared-equity homes and market housing in later phases. Delivery is expected across up to five stages, supported by a revised hybrid planning application and a phased compulsory purchase order strategy. The main requirement is a development and investment partner to deliver the regeneration, with early phases undertaken on behalf of the Council and later phases delivered by the partner as retained developer. The procurement covers construction, property development, architectural, engineering and other construction-related services. The Council is also considering interim roof and concrete repair works alongside the main regeneration scheme. This procurement is at the planning stage and is currently a soft market engagement before any formal tender. The Council expects to use a Competitive Flexible Procedure to appoint the development and investment partner. Interested organisations are being asked to submit an expression of interest and may be selected for one-to-one market-engagement discussions; participation will not form part of any future evaluation. The engagement is intended to test deliverability, phasing, commercial structure, risk allocation and appetite for combining regeneration with interim capital works. The estimated main procurement value is £300 million excluding VAT, or £360 million including VAT. The possible interim capital works are estimated at up to £5 million. The indicative contract period runs from 3 July 2028 to 3 March 2042. This will suit established housing developers, property investors and regeneration partnerships able to combine long-term investment with major residential construction delivery. Relevant businesses are likely to include organisations with experience of replacing and expanding affordable housing, delivering mixed-tenure developments, managing phased masterplans and working through planning and compulsory purchase processes. The scope also favours teams able to provide or coordinate architectural, engineering, construction-management and wider construction-related services. Suppliers should be prepared to advise on deliverability, commercial structures and allocation of development and delivery risks, and to work with the Council through up to five phases. Contractors with suitable capacity for substantial roof and concrete repair programmes may also be relevant, either as part of a combined proposition or alongside a regeneration-focused response. The market engagement is intended to shape the eventual procurement. ## Notice London Borough of Hounslow intends to undertake a Soft Market Engagement (SME) exercise in advance of a formal procurement for a Development / Investment Partner to deliver the comprehensive regeneration of the Convent Way Estate. * The Council is progressing a redesigned masterplan for approximately 550-568 homes, including full reprovision of 250 existing social rent homes, additional social rent units, shared equity homes, and later phase market housing.
