## Summary

Radius Homes Limited is procuring construction of a 57-home social housing development on a greenfield site at Woodside Road, Derry/Londonderry. The mix comprises 45 houses, including split-level and wheelchair-accessible homes, and eight apartments, including one wheelchair-accessible apartment. The works also cover site-wide enabling works, site clearance and remodelling to address the site's topography, utility alterations, a bus turning circle, landscaping, a children's play park, amenity space and other ancillary works. This is residential building construction (CPV 45211000). The development is intended to provide social housing; the project is associated with a planning application to Derry City and Strabane District Council.

Radius invited offers through a competitive flexible procedure, with an initial conditions-of-participation stage followed by a competitive tender for shortlisted contractors. Expressions of interest were due by 2 November 2026 at 12:00, and enquiries by 26 October 2026 at 17:00. The estimated contract value is £11 million gross. The contract period is 31 March 2027 to 30 March 2029, approximately 24 months. There is one lot. The stated award basis ranks price and quality, including social value; the buyer may negotiate value-engineering and cost-efficiency proposals with the three highest-ranked bidders before requesting final financial offers, and may conduct optional post-tender dialogue. Economic and technical participation conditions apply, with shortlisting. The process is at the tender stage: the buyer has invited offers.

The opportunity suits building contractors with the capability to deliver a multi-unit residential development and coordinate enabling works, site clearance and remodelling, utility changes, landscaping and associated community facilities. Suppliers need to manage a topographically challenging site, a bus turning circle and detailed construction phasing, with delivery time treated as critical; failure to meet contractual start or completion limits may give the employer a right to terminate. All homes must achieve Secured by Design and Lifetime Homes accreditation and an EPC A rating, and the project is to be delivered to BIM Level 2. This favours firms able to demonstrate relevant technical and economic standing, quality-led delivery and social value, and to engage in cost-efficiency and value-engineering discussions. The opportunity is marked suitable for SMEs.
