In plain English

Lancaster City Council is building four new council houses on a garage site in Hastings Road. The work involves demolishing existing garages, preparing the site, and constructing 2 cottage-style apartments and 2 terraced houses using prefabricated (MMC) building panels. The project emphasises energy efficiency, design quality, and social value.

What the buyer wants

• Demolish existing garages and carry out full site preparation • Construct 4 new residential units (2 apartments, 2 terraced houses) using Etopia MMC prefabricated panels • Deliver energy-efficient construction with high design standards and measurable social value outcomes

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: Most small businesses will struggle because this is a full design-and-build housing project requiring significant project management experience, MMC prefab expertise, and likely a turnover of £1m+ to bond the contract. The site constraints and energy efficiency requirements mean specialist knowledge is essential. Single-trade subcontractors (electricians, plumbers) may not qualify unless working under a main contractor.
