In plain English
LiveWest Homes, a housing association, wants a contractor to design and build a housing development at Coombe Way, Kings Tamerton, Plymouth. The notice gives the scheme as up to 52 homes (1 to 4 bedrooms), while the planning application it refers to covers 70 affordable net zero energy homes and one small flexible commercial unit. The contract is worth an estimated £14 million over about 24 months.
What the buyer wants
• Design and build the scheme in line with the planning conditions and design criteria in the Employer's Requirements document. • Work to the detailed requirements set out in the specification documents. • Submit tender responses, queries and questions through the Proactis Pro-Contract portal, as part of a single stage tender for invited contractors.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): Only contractors invited to tender can bid, and the £14 million value, 24-month duration and full design and build responsibility mean a small business would need to be invited and have the scale and capacity to carry the whole scheme.
Always check the tender documents.
