In plain English
Blackpool Borough Council is looking for a development partner to redevelop a 5.41-hectare site near the town centre. The work includes demolishing up to 300 homes, building up to 230 new homes, adding local shops, offices and community space, and creating new public spaces and roads. The estimated value is £300 million including options, and the council says the site-specific part is about £102 million.
What the buyer wants
• Show a track record of delivering large residential-led regeneration or development schemes, with the skills to work in partnership with the council. • Demonstrate the financial strength to fund and deliver a project of this scale, including the ability to work alongside the Homes England grant arrangements. • Set out your approach to demolition, site preparation, phased construction, community engagement and long-term partnership working through the competitive procedure stages.
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
Most small businesses would be disqualified by the lack of a proven track record and balance sheet capacity to deliver a £100 million-plus residential regeneration scheme, so they would need to join a larger consortium.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
