Companies with experience in social housing, community development, and collaborative working are well-suited to compete in this tender. The project, supported by substantial funding, targets delivering additional social sector homes as part of the Welsh Government's housing strategy.

It is believed that there are clear health benefits of having a good quality home which is affordable and located in a safe environment. Investing public money in delivering new homes, and improving existing homes, contributes to national and local economies by creating and supporting jobs and training opportunities as well as improving people's health, well-being, and quality of life.The Welsh government has set a target of delivering 20,000 additional homes for rent in the social sector in this Senedd term (2021-2026), which is being supported by record levels of funding of circa PS1.2billion over the first four years of the Senedd term. The capacity and skills of developers to design, plan and deliver these homes is essential in meeting this target - including in the rural communities of Wales.There is a general consensus that delivering new homes in rural areas faces additional challenges to those in urban areas, this range from accurately understanding housing needs and aspiration, identifying appropriate sites, achieving economies of scale, securing funding and meeting planning requirements.Therefore, the purpose of this project is to increase the supply of new affordable homes in rural areas by developing a rural housing action guide ('the guide') with key stakeholders based on research on the support required by communities and social housing providers.The guide should aim to inform Local Authorities and social landlords with improving the supply of social and affordable housing in rural areas by increasing the pace and scale of delivery. It should encourage new collaborative ways of working across the sector, promote innovation and partnership, and challenge issues that are barriers to affordable housing delivery through a clear and cohesive approach with in the guide. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=139194 | | Notice type | S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 May 2024 | | Submission deadline | 20 Mar 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 May 2024 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £41,325 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LLYWODRAETH CYMRU / WELSH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | CAERDYDD / CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 3NQ | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Cathays | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | RH ENVIRONMENTAL | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 70 - Real estate services - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 70330000 - Property management services of real estate on a fee or contract basis - 72224000 - Project management consultancy services - 79310000 - Market research services ## Release History - 16 May 2024 at 10:26 - Award - S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=139194 - 10 May 2024 at 10:23 - Award - S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=139194 - 21 Feb 2024 at 16:57 - Tender - S2W Notice - Website Invitation to Tender Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=139194 ## Notice URLs - http://gov.wales - https://etenderwales.bravosolution.co.uk - https://etenderwales.bravosolution.co.uk- - https://www.gov.wales/well-being-future-generations-act-essentials-html ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
