## Summary

Thurrock Council is seeking a principal contractor to redevelop a site at Broxburn Drive, South Ockendon, and build 33 affordable homes, with associated landscaping and parking. The works include demolition and building construction for multi-dwelling housing, alongside construction-related services. This is a design-and-build requirement, with the contractor responsible for delivering the completed homes and associated external works. The delivery location is South Ockendon, in Thurrock. The procurement is structured in two stages: pre-construction services followed by a design-and-build contract. The scheme is intended to add affordable housing to the area.

The buyer invited offers through a two-stage design-and-build procurement using an open procedure. The first stage uses a 2024 Pre-Construction Services Agreement with amendments; the second uses a 2024 JCT Design and Build Contract with amendments. The submission deadline was 4 December 2026 at 12:00, and the deadline for questions was 23 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract was planned to run from 31 March 2027 to 30 March 2029, with an option to extend by 12 months for build delays or the defects period. The estimated value is £13 million excluding VAT (£15.6 million including VAT). Price carries 40% of the evaluation and quality 60%. One lot covers the whole requirement.

This opportunity is suited to principal contractors with the capacity to deliver a multi-home affordable housing development under a design-and-build arrangement. Relevant experience would include coordinating pre-construction services and construction delivery, managing demolition and building works, and completing landscaping and parking as part of a housing scheme. Suppliers should be equipped to manage the design-and-build contract through to completion and to address any build delays or defects during the potential extension period. The quality-led evaluation means bidders will need to demonstrate a strong delivery approach as well as competitive pricing. The project brings together housing construction and associated external works in a single requirement, so firms able to coordinate these activities within one principal contract are well placed.
