In plain English

Choice Housing, a housing association, wants to appoint developers to supply land and design and build affordable rented homes in the Antrim area, under the Department for Communities Affordable Rent Programme. The estimated value is £4,750,000, and each developer may be asked to deliver up to 20 homes, with the total depending on funding from the Department and the quality of bids.

What the buyer wants

• Supply the land for the homes • Design the homes to the Department for Communities 'Homes for Intermediate Rent Design Standards', Choice Housing's own design and specification standards, and the Employer's Requirements in the precedent Sale and Development Agreement • Obtain statutory approvals, including Planning Permission and Building Control approval, and then construct the properties

Requirements

What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice requires the supplier to provide the land as well as design and build up to 20 homes on a contract valued at £4.75 million, which would likely rule out most small trade businesses that do not already own suitable land or have the financial capacity to fund a development of this scale.
